Detailed Description

template<class TYPE, class FUNCTOR, class ACE_LOCK>
class ACE_Timer_Heap_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >

Provides a very fast and predictable timer implementation.

This implementation uses a heap-based callout queue of absolute times. Therefore, in the average and worst case, scheduling, canceling, and expiring timers is O(log N) (where N is the total number of timers). In addition, we can also preallocate as many ACE_Timer_Node objects as there are slots in the heap. This allows us to completely remove the need for dynamic memory allocation, which is important for real-time systems.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class TYPE, class FUNCTOR, class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_Timer_Heap_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >::ACE_Timer_Heap_T size_t  size,
int  preallocated = 0,
FUNCTOR *  upcall_functor = 0,
ACE_Free_List< ACE_Timer_Node_T< TYPE > > *  freelist = 0
 

The Constructor creates a heap with specified number of elements. This can also take in a upcall functor and freelist (if 0, then defaults will be created).

Parameters:
size The maximum number of timers that can be inserted into the new object.
preallocated Default 0, if non-0 then all the memory for the ACE_Timer_Node objects will be pre-allocated. This saves time and is more predictable (though it requires more space). Otherwise, timer nodes are allocated as needed.
freelist is the freelist of timer nodes.
upcall_functor If 0 Timer Heap will create a default FUNCTOR.

template<class TYPE, class FUNCTOR, class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_Timer_Heap_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >::ACE_Timer_Heap_T FUNCTOR *  upcall_functor = 0,
ACE_Free_List< ACE_Timer_Node_T< TYPE > > *  freelist = 0
 

Default constructor. upcall_functor is the instance of the FUNCTOR to be used by the queue. If upcall_functor is 0, Timer Heap will create a default FUNCTOR. freelist is the freelist of timer nodes. If 0, then a default freelist will be created. The default size will be ACE_DEFAULT_TIMERS and there will be no preallocation.

Member Function Documentation

template<class TYPE, class FUNCTOR, class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_Timer_Node_T< TYPE > * ACE_Timer_Heap_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >::alloc_node void   )  [protected, virtual]
 

Factory method that allocates a new node (uses operator new if we're *not* preallocating, otherwise uses an internal freelist).

Reimplemented from ACE_Timer_Queue_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >.

template<class TYPE, class FUNCTOR, class ACE_LOCK>
int ACE_Timer_Heap_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >::cancel long  timer_id,
const void **  act = 0,
int  dont_call_handle_close = 1
[virtual]
 

Cancel the single timer that matches the <timer_id> value (which was returned from the <schedule> method). If act is non-NULL then it will be set to point to the ``magic cookie'' argument passed in when the timer was registered. This makes it possible to free up the memory and avoid memory leaks. If <dont_call> is 0 then the <functor> will be invoked. Returns 1 if cancellation succeeded and 0 if the <timer_id> wasn't found.

Implements ACE_Timer_Queue_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >.

template<class TYPE, class FUNCTOR, class ACE_LOCK>
int ACE_Timer_Heap_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >::cancel const TYPE &  type,
int  dont_call_handle_close = 1
[virtual]
 

Cancel all timers associated with <type>. If <dont_call> is 0 then the <functor> will be invoked. Returns number of timers cancelled.

Implements ACE_Timer_Queue_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >.

template<class TYPE, class FUNCTOR, class ACE_LOCK>
ACE_Timer_Node_T< TYPE > * ACE_Timer_Heap_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >::remove_first void   )  [virtual]
 

Removes the earliest node from the queue and returns it. Note that the timer is removed from the heap, but is not freed, and its ID is not reclaimed. The caller is responsible for calling either reschedule() or free_node() after this function returns. Thus, this function is for support of ACE_Timer_Queue::expire and should not be used unadvisedly in other conditions.

Implements ACE_Timer_Queue_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >.

template<class TYPE, class FUNCTOR, class ACE_LOCK>
void ACE_Timer_Heap_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >::reschedule ACE_Timer_Node_T< TYPE > *   )  [protected, virtual]
 

Reschedule an "interval" <ace_timer_node>.

Implements ACE_Timer_Queue_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >.

template<class TYPE, class FUNCTOR, class ACE_LOCK>
int ACE_Timer_Heap_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >::reset_interval long  timer_id,
const ACE_Time_Value interval
[virtual]
 

Resets the interval of the timer represented by <timer_id> to <interval>, which is specified in relative time to the current <gettimeofday>. If <interval> is equal to <ACE_Time_Value::zero>, the timer will become a non-rescheduling timer. Returns 0 if successful, -1 if not.

Implements ACE_Timer_Queue_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >.

template<class TYPE, class FUNCTOR, class ACE_LOCK>
long ACE_Timer_Heap_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >::schedule_i const TYPE &  type,
const void *  act,
const ACE_Time_Value future_time,
const ACE_Time_Value interval
[protected, virtual]
 

Schedule a timer that may optionally auto-reset. Schedule <type> that will expire at <future_time>, which is specified in absolute time. If it expires then <act> is passed in as the value to the <functor>. If <interval> is != to <ACE_Time_Value::zero> then it is used to reschedule the <type> automatically, using relative time to the current <gettimeofday>. This method returns a <timer_id> that uniquely identifies the the <type> entry in an internal list. This <timer_id> can be used to cancel the timer before it expires. The cancellation ensures that <timer_ids> are unique up to values of greater than 2 billion timers. As long as timers don't stay around longer than this there should be no problems with accidentally deleting the wrong timer. Returns -1 on failure (which is guaranteed never to be a valid <timer_id>).

Implements ACE_Timer_Queue_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >.

template<class TYPE, class FUNCTOR, class ACE_LOCK>
int ACE_Timer_Heap_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >::timer_id void   )  [private]
 

Returns a timer id that uniquely identifies this timer. This id can be used to cancel a timer via the <cancel (int)> method. The timer id returned from this method will never == -1 to avoid conflicts with other failure return values.

If this is non-0, then we preallocate <max_size_> number of <ace_timer_node> objects in order to reduce dynamic allocation costs. In auto-growing implementation, this points to the last array of nodes allocated.

ssize_t* ACE_Timer_Heap_T< TYPE, FUNCTOR, ACE_LOCK >::timer_ids_ [private]
 

An array of "pointers" that allows each <ace_timer_node> in the <heap_> to be located in O(1) time. Basically, <timer_id_[i]> contains the slot in the <heap_> array where an <ace_timer_node> * with timer id <i> resides. Thus, the timer id passed back from <schedule> is really a slot into the <timer_ids> array. The <timer_ids_> array serves two purposes: negative values are indications of free timer IDs, whereas positive values are "pointers" into the <heap_> array for assigned timer IDs.

"Pointer" to the element in the <timer_ids_> array that was last given out as a timer ID.
