Detailed Description

template<class T, class ACE_LOCK>
class ACE_Locked_Free_List< T, ACE_LOCK >

Implements a free list.

This class maintains a free list of nodes of type T. It depends on the type T having a <get_next> and <set_next> method. It maintains a mutex so the freelist can be used in a multithreaded program .

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class T, class ACE_LOCK> ACE_Locked_Free_List< T, ACE_LOCK >::ACE_Locked_Free_List (  int    mode = ACE_FREE_LIST_WITH_POOL, size_t    prealloc = ACE_DEFAULT_FREE_LIST_PREALLOC, size_t    lwm = ACE_DEFAULT_FREE_LIST_LWM, size_t    hwm = ACE_DEFAULT_FREE_LIST_HWM, size_t    inc = ACE_DEFAULT_FREE_LIST_INC )

Constructor takes a <mode> (i.e., ACE_FREE_LIST_WITH_POOL or ACE_PURE_FREE_LIST), a count of the number of nodes to <prealloc>, a low and high water mark (<lwm> and <hwm>) that indicate when to allocate more nodes, an increment value (<inc>) that indicates how many nodes to allocate when the list must grow.

template<class T, class ACE_LOCK> ACE_Locked_Free_List< T, ACE_LOCK >::~ACE_Locked_Free_List (  void    )  [virtual]

Destructor - removes all the elements from the free_list.

Member Function Documentation

template<class T, class ACE_LOCK> ACE_INLINE void ACE_Locked_Free_List< T, ACE_LOCK >::add (  T *    element )  [virtual]

Inserts an element onto the free list (if it isn't past the high water mark). Implements ACE_Free_List< T >.

template<class T, class ACE_LOCK> void ACE_Locked_Free_List< T, ACE_LOCK >::alloc (  size_t    n )  [protected, virtual]

Allocates <n> extra nodes for the freelist.

template<class T, class ACE_LOCK> void ACE_Locked_Free_List< T, ACE_LOCK >::dealloc (  size_t    n )  [protected, virtual]

Removes and frees <n> nodes from the freelist.

template<class T, class ACE_LOCK> void ACE_Locked_Free_List< T, ACE_LOCK >::operator= (  const ACE_Locked_Free_List< T, ACE_LOCK > &    )  [private]

template<class T, class ACE_LOCK> ACE_INLINE T * ACE_Locked_Free_List< T, ACE_LOCK >::remove (  void    )  [virtual]

Takes a element off the freelist and returns it. It creates <inc> new elements if the size is at or below the low water mark. Implements ACE_Free_List< T >.

template<class T, class ACE_LOCK> ACE_INLINE void ACE_Locked_Free_List< T, ACE_LOCK >::resize (  size_t    newsize )  [virtual]

Resizes the free list to <newsize>. Implements ACE_Free_List< T >.

template<class T, class ACE_LOCK> ACE_INLINE size_t ACE_Locked_Free_List< T, ACE_LOCK >::size (  void    )  [virtual]

Returns the current size of the free list. Implements ACE_Free_List< T >.
