Detailed Description

Supplies common server operations for dynamic and static configuration of services.

The <ACE_Service_Config> uses the Monostate pattern. Therefore, you can only have one of these instantiated per-process. NOTE: the signal_handler_ static member is allocated by the <ACE_Object_Manager>. The <ACE_Service_Config> constructor uses signal_handler_. Therefore, if the program has any static <ACE_Service_Config> objects, there might be initialization order problems. They can be minimized, but not eliminated, by _not_ defining <ACE_HAS_NONSTATIC_OBJECT_MANAGER>.

void ACE_Service_Config::handle_signal (  int    sig, siginfo_t *   , ucontext_t *    )  [static]

Handles signals to trigger reconfigurations.

int ACE_Service_Config::init_svc_conf_file_queue (  void    )  [static, private]

Initialize the <svc_conf_file_queue_> if necessary.

int ACE_Service_Config::initialize (  const ACE_TCHAR *    svc_name, const ACE_TCHAR *    parameters )  [static]

Initialize and activate a statically <svc_name> service.

int ACE_Service_Config::initialize (  const ACE_Service_Type *   , const ACE_TCHAR *    parameters )  [static]

Dynamically link the shared object file and retrieve a pointer to the designated shared object in this file.

int ACE_Service_Config::load_static_svcs (  void    )  [static, protected]

Add the default statically-linked services to the <ACE_Service_Repository>.

ACE_INLINE int ACE_Service_Config::open (  int    argc, ACE_TCHAR *    argv[], const ACE_TCHAR *    logger_key = ACE_DEFAULT_LOGGER_KEY, int    ignore_static_svcs = 1, int    ignore_default_svc_conf_file = 0, int    ignore_debug_flag = 0 )  [static]

This is the primary entry point into the ACE_Service_Config (the constructor just handles simple initializations). It parses arguments passed in from argc and argv parameters. The arguments that are valid in a call to this method include: '-b' Option to indicate that we should be a daemon. Note that when this option is used, the process will be daemonized before the service configuration file(s) are read. During daemonization, (on POSIX systems) the current directory will be changed to "/" so the caller should either fully specify the file names, or execute a chroot() to the appropriate directory. See also: ACE::daemonize(). '-d' Turn on debugging mode '-f' Specifies a configuration file name other than the default svc.conf. Can be specified multiple times to use multiple files. '-k' Specifies the rendezvous point to use for the ACE distributed logger. '-y' Explicitly enables the use of static services. This flag overrides the ignore_static_svcs parameter value. '-n' Explicitly disables the use of static services. This flag overrides the ignore_static_svcs parameter value. '-s' Specifies a signal number other than SIGHUP to trigger reprocessing of the configuration file(s). Ignored for platforms that do not have POSIX signals, such as Windows. '-S' Specifies a service directive string. Enclose the string in quotes and escape any embedded quotes with a backslash. This option specifies service directives without the need for a configuration file. Parameters: argc  The number of commandline arguments. argv  The array with commandline arguments logger_key  Indicates where to write the logging output, which is typically either a STREAM pipe or a socket address. ignore_static_svcs  If 1 then static services are not loaded, otherwise, they are loaded. ignore_default_svc_conf_file  If non-0 then the svc.conf configuration file will be ignored. ignore_debug_flag  If non-0 then the application is responsible for setting the ACE_Log_Msg::priority_mask appropriately. Return values: -1  the configuration file is not found or cannot be opened (errno is set accordingly). 0  Success. >0  The number of errors encountered while processing the service configuration file(s).

ACE_INLINE int ACE_Service_Config::open (  const ACE_TCHAR    program_name[], const ACE_TCHAR *    logger_key = ACE_DEFAULT_LOGGER_KEY, int    ignore_static_svcs = 1, int    ignore_default_svc_conf_file = 0, int    ignore_debug_flag = 0 )  [static]

Performs an open without parsing command-line arguments. The <logger_key> indicates where to write the logging output, which is typically either a STREAM pipe or a socket address. If <ignore_static_svcs> is 1 then static services are not loaded, otherwise, they are loaded. If <ignore_default_svc_conf_file> is non-0 then the <svc.conf> configuration file will be ignored. Returns zero upon success, -1 if the file is not found or cannot be opened (errno is set accordingly), otherwise returns the number of errors encountered loading the services in the specified svc.conf configuration file. If <ignore_debug_flag> is non-0 then the application is responsible for setting the <ACE_Log_Msg::priority_mask> appropriately.

int ACE_Service_Config::open_i (  const ACE_TCHAR    program_name[], const ACE_TCHAR *    logger_key = ACE_DEFAULT_LOGGER_KEY, int    ignore_default_svc_conf_file = 0, int    ignore_debug_flag = 0 )  [static]

Performs an open without parsing command-line arguments. The <logger_key> indicates where to write the logging output, which is typically either a STREAM pipe or a socket address. If <ignore_default_svc_conf_file> is non-0 then the "svc.conf" file will be ignored. If <ignore_debug_flag> is non-0 then the application is responsible for setting the <ACE_Log_Msg::priority_mask> appropriately. Returns number of errors that occurred on failure and 0 otherwise.

int ACE_Service_Config::parse_args (  int   , ACE_TCHAR *    argv[] )  [static]

Handle the command-line options intended for the <ACE_Service_Config>. Note that <argv[0]> is assumed to be the program name. The arguments that are valid in a call to this method are '-b' Option to indicate that we should be a daemon '-d' Turn on debugging mode '-f' Option to read in the list of svc.conf file names '-k' Option to read a wide string where in the logger output can be written '-y' Turn on the flag for a repository of statically linked services '-n' Need not have a repository of statically linked services '-S' Option to read in the list of services on the command-line Please observe the difference between options '-f' that looks for a list of files and here a list of services.

int ACE_Service_Config::process_commandline_directives (  void    )  [static, protected]

Process service configuration requests that were provided on the command-line. Returns the number of errors that occurred.

int ACE_Service_Config::process_directive (  const ACE_Static_Svc_Descriptor &    ssd, int    force_replace = 0 )  [static]

Process one static service definition. Load a new static service into the ACE_Service_Repository. Parameters: ssd  Service descriptor, see the document of ACE_Static_Svc_Descriptor for more details. force_replace  If set the new service descriptor replaces any previous instance in the ACE_Service_Repository. Returns: Returns -1 if the service cannot be 'loaded'.

int ACE_Service_Config::process_directive (  const ACE_TCHAR    directive[] )  [static]

Process one service configuration <directive>, which is passed as a string. Returns the number of errors that occurred.

int ACE_Service_Config::process_directives (  void    )  [static]

Process (or re-process) service configuration requests that are provided in the svc.conf file(s). Returns the number of errors that occurred.

int ACE_Service_Config::process_directives_i (  ACE_Svc_Conf_Param *    param )  [static, protected]

This is the implementation function that process_directives() and process_directive() both call. Returns the number of errors that occurred.

int ACE_Service_Config::process_file (  const ACE_TCHAR    file[] )  [static]

Process a file containing a list of service configuration directives.

void ACE_Service_Config::reconfig_occurred (  int    )  [static]

Indicate that reconfiguration occurred.

int ACE_Service_Config::reconfig_occurred (  void    )  [static]

True if reconfiguration occurred.

ACE_STATIC_SVCS * ACE_Service_Config::static_svcs (  void    )  [static]

Returns a pointer to the list of statically linked services.

int ACE_Service_Config::suspend (  const ACE_TCHAR    svc_name[] )  [static]

Suspend <svc_name>. Note that this will not unlink the service from the daemon if it was dynamically linked, it will mark it as being suspended in the Service Repository and call the <suspend> member function on the appropriate <ACE_Service_Object>. A service can be resumed later on by calling the <RESUME> member function...
