Detailed Description

Defines a class that provided a highly optimized memory management scheme for allocating memory statically.

This class manages a fixed-size <POOL_SIZE> of memory. Every time <malloc>/<calloc> is called, it simply moves an internal index forward and returns a pointer to the requested chunk. All memory is allocated statically (typically via the ACE_Static_Allocator template) and <free> is a no-op. This behavior is useful for use-cases where all the memory allocation needs are known in advance and no deletions ever occur.

Member Function Documentation

int ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::bind ( const char *  name,
void *  pointer,
int  duplicates = 0 
) [virtual]

Associate name with pointer. If duplicates == 0 then do not allow duplicate name/pointer associations, else if duplicates != 0 then allow duplicate name/pointer assocations. Returns 0 if successfully binds (1) a previously unbound name or (2) duplicates != 0, returns 1 if trying to bind a previously bound name and duplicates == 0, else returns -1 if a resource failure occurs.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

void * ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::calloc ( size_t  n_elem,
size_t  elem_size,
char  initial_value = '\0' 
) [virtual]

Allocate <n_elem> each of size elem_size, giving them initial_value.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

void * ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::calloc ( size_t  nbytes,
char  initial_value = '\0' 
) [virtual]

Allocate nbytes, giving them initial_value.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

void ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::dump ( void   )  const [virtual]

Dump the state of the object.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

int ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::find ( const char *  name  )  [virtual]

Returns 0 if the name is in the mapping. -1, otherwise.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

int ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::find ( const char *  name,
void *&  pointer 
) [virtual]

Locate name and pass out parameter via pointer. If found, return 0, returns -1 if failure occurs.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

void ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::free ( void *  ptr  )  [virtual]

Free <ptr> (must have been allocated by <ACE_Allocator::malloc>).

Implements ACE_Allocator.

void * ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::malloc ( size_t  nbytes  )  [virtual]

Allocate nbytes, but don't give them any initial value.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

int ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::protect ( void *  addr,
size_t  len,
int  prot = PROT_RDWR 
) [virtual]

Change the protection of the pages of the mapped region to prot starting at addr up to len bytes.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

int ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::protect ( ssize_t  len = -1,
int  prot = PROT_RDWR 
) [virtual]

Change the protection of the pages of the mapped region to prot starting at <this->base_addr_> up to len bytes. If len == -1 then change protection of all pages in the mapped region.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

int ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::remove ( void   )  [virtual]

Remove any resources associated with this memory manager.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

int ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::sync ( void *  addr,
size_t  len,
int  flags = MS_SYNC 
) [virtual]

Sync len bytes of the memory region to the backing store starting at addr.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

int ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::sync ( ssize_t  len = -1,
int  flags = MS_SYNC 
) [virtual]

Sync len bytes of the memory region to the backing store starting at this->base_addr_. If len == -1 then sync the whole region.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

int ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::trybind ( const char *  name,
void *&  pointer 
) [virtual]

Associate name with pointer. Does not allow duplicate name/pointer associations. Returns 0 if successfully binds (1) a previously unbound name, 1 if trying to bind a previously bound name, or returns -1 if a resource failure occurs. When this call returns pointer's value will always reference the void * that name is associated with. Thus, if the caller needs to use pointer (e.g., to free it) a copy must be maintained by the caller.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

int ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::unbind ( const char *  name,
void *&  pointer 
) [virtual]

Break any association of name. Returns the value of pointer in case the caller needs to deallocate memory.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

int ACE_Static_Allocator_Base::unbind ( const char *  name  )  [virtual]

Unbind (remove) the name from the map. Don't return the pointer to the caller

Implements ACE_Allocator.
