ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM > Class Template Reference

This is an adapter that allows applications to transparently combine the <ACE_Lock> abstract base class (which contains pure virtual methods) with any of the other concrete ACE synchronization classes (e.g., <ACE_Mutex>, <ACE_Semaphore>, <ACE_RW_Mutex>, etc.). More...

Detailed Description

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
class ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >

This is an adapter that allows applications to transparently combine the <ACE_Lock> abstract base class (which contains pure virtual methods) with any of the other concrete ACE synchronization classes (e.g., <ACE_Mutex>, <ACE_Semaphore>, <ACE_RW_Mutex>, etc.).

This class uses a form of the Adapter pattern.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
ACE_INLINE ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::ACE_Lock_Adapter ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM &    lock
 

Constructor. All locking requests will be forwarded to <lock>.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::ACE_Lock_Adapter void   
 

Constructor. Since no lock is provided by the user, one will be created internally.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
ACE_INLINE ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::~ACE_Lock_Adapter void    [virtual]
 

Destructor. If <lock_> was not passed in by the user, it will be deleted.


Member Function Documentation

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::acquire void    [virtual]
 

Block the thread until the lock is acquired.

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::acquire_read void    [virtual]
 

Block until the thread acquires a read lock. If the locking mechanism doesn't support read locks then this just calls <acquire>.

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::acquire_write void    [virtual]
 

Block until the thread acquires a write lock. If the locking mechanism doesn't support read locks then this just calls <acquire>.

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::release void    [virtual]
 

Release the lock.

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::remove void    [virtual]
 

Explicitly destroy the lock.

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::tryacquire void    [virtual]
 

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

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::tryacquire_read void    [virtual]
 

Conditionally acquire a read lock. If the locking mechanism doesn't support read locks then this just calls <acquire>.

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::tryacquire_write void    [virtual]
 

Conditionally acquire a write lock. If the locking mechanism doesn't support read locks then this just calls <acquire>.

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
ACE_INLINE int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::tryacquire_write_upgrade void    [virtual]
 

Conditionally try to upgrade a lock held for read to a write lock. If the locking mechanism doesn't support read locks then this just calls <acquire>. Returns 0 on success, -1 on failure.

Implements ACE_Lock.
