Detailed Description

template<class ACE_LOCK>
class ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >

This data structure is meant to be used within a method or function... It performs automatic aquisition and release of a parameterized synchronization object <ACE_LOCK>.

The <ACE_LOCK> class given as an actual parameter must provide at the very least the <acquire>, <tryacquire>, <release>, and <remove> methods.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_INLINE ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::ACE_Guard ACE_LOCK &    l
 

template<class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_INLINE ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::ACE_Guard ACE_LOCK &    l,
int    block
 

Implicitly and automatically acquire (or try to acquire) the lock. If <block> is non-0 then <acquire> the <ACE_LOCK>, else <tryacquire> it.

template<class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_INLINE ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::ACE_Guard ACE_LOCK &    l,
int    block,
int    become_owner
 

Initialise the guard without implicitly acquiring the lock. The <become_owner> parameter indicates whether the guard should release the lock implicitly on destruction. The <block> parameter is ignored and is used here to disambiguate with the preceding constructor.

template<class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_INLINE ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::~ACE_Guard void   
 

Implicitly release the lock.

template<class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::ACE_Guard ACE_LOCK *    lock [inline, protected]
 

Helper, meant for subclass only.

template<class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::ACE_Guard const ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK > &    [private]
 


Member Function Documentation

template<class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::acquire void   
 

Explicitly acquire the lock.

Reimplemented in ACE_Write_Guard< ACE_LOCK >, and ACE_Read_Guard< ACE_LOCK >.

template<class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_INLINE void ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::disown void   
 

Relinquish ownership of the lock so that it is not released implicitly in the destructor.

template<class ACE_LOCK>
void ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::dump void    const
 

Dump the state of an object.

Reimplemented in ACE_Write_Guard< ACE_LOCK >, and ACE_Read_Guard< ACE_LOCK >.

template<class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::locked void    const
 

1 if locked, 0 if couldn't acquire the lock (errno will contain the reason for this).

template<class ACE_LOCK>
void ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::operator= const ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK > &    [private]
 

template<class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::release void   
 

Explicitly release the lock, but only if it is held!

template<class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::remove void   
 

Explicitly remove the lock.

template<class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::tryacquire void   
 

Conditionally acquire the lock (i.e., won't block).

Reimplemented in ACE_Write_Guard< ACE_LOCK >, and ACE_Read_Guard< ACE_LOCK >.

ACE_LOCK* ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::lock_ [protected]
 

Pointer to the ACE_LOCK we're guarding.

template<class ACE_LOCK>
int ACE_Guard< ACE_LOCK >::owner_ [protected]
 

Keeps track of whether we acquired the lock or failed.
