Detailed Description

Abstraction over a real file. This is meant to be the entry point into the Cached Virtual Filesystem.

This is a cached filesystem implementation based loosely on the implementation of JAWS_File. The interfaces will be nearly the same. The under-the-hood implementation should hopefully be a much faster thing. These will be given their own implementations later. For now, we borrow the implementation provided by JAWS. On creation, the cache is checked, and reference count is incremented. On destruction, reference count is decremented. If the reference count is 0, the file is removed from the cache. E.g. 1, { ACE_Filecache_Handle foo("foo.html"); this->peer ().send (foo.address (), foo.size ()); } E.g. 2, { ACE_Filecache_Handle foo("foo.html"); io->transmitfile (foo.handle (), this->peer ().handle ()); } E.g. 3, { ACE_Filecache_Handle foo("foo.html", content_length); this->peer ().recv (foo.address (), content_length); } TODO:

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ACE_Filecache_Handle::ACE_Filecache_Handle const ACE_TCHAR   filename,
ACE_Filecache_Flag    mapit = ACE_MAPIT
 

Query cache for file, and acquire it. Assumes the file is being opened for reading.

ACE_Filecache_Handle::ACE_Filecache_Handle const ACE_TCHAR   filename,
int    size,
ACE_Filecache_Flag    mapit = ACE_MAPIT
 

Create new entry, and acquire it. Presence of SIZE assumes the file is being opened for writing. If SIZE is zero, assumes the file is to be removed from the cache.

ACE_Filecache_Handle::~ACE_Filecache_Handle void   
 

Closes any open handles, release acquired file.

ACE_Filecache_Handle::ACE_Filecache_Handle void    [protected]
 

Default do nothing constructor. Prevent it from being called.


Member Function Documentation

int ACE_Filecache_Handle::error void    const
 

Any associated error in handle creation and acquisition.

ACE_HANDLE ACE_Filecache_Handle::handle void    const
 

A handle (e.g., UNIX file descriptor, or NT file handle).

void ACE_Filecache_Handle::init void    [protected]
 

Common initializations for constructors.

off_t ACE_Filecache_Handle::size void    const
