Member Function Documentation

virtual int ACE_Reactor_Notify::close void    [pure virtual]
 

Implemented in ACE_Dev_Poll_Reactor_Notify, ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify, and ACE_WFMO_Reactor_Notify.

virtual int ACE_Reactor_Notify::dispatch_notifications int &    number_of_active_handles,
ACE_Handle_Set   rd_mask
[pure virtual]
 

Handles pending threads (if any) that are waiting to unblock the <Reactor_Impl>.

Implemented in ACE_Dev_Poll_Reactor_Notify, ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify, and ACE_WFMO_Reactor_Notify.

virtual int ACE_Reactor_Notify::dispatch_notify ACE_Notification_Buffer   buffer [pure virtual]
 

Handle one of the notify call on the <handle>. This could be because of a thread trying to unblock the <Reactor_Impl>

Implemented in ACE_Dev_Poll_Reactor_Notify, ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify, and ACE_WFMO_Reactor_Notify.

virtual void ACE_Reactor_Notify::dump void    const [pure virtual]
 

Dump the state of an object.

Implemented in ACE_Dev_Poll_Reactor_Notify, ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify, and ACE_WFMO_Reactor_Notify.

virtual int ACE_Reactor_Notify::is_dispatchable ACE_Notification_Buffer   buffer [pure virtual]
 

Verify whether the buffer has dispatchable info or not.

Implemented in ACE_Dev_Poll_Reactor_Notify, ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify, and ACE_WFMO_Reactor_Notify.

virtual int ACE_Reactor_Notify::max_notify_iterations void    [pure virtual]
 

Get the maximum number of times that the <handle_input> method will iterate and dispatch the <ACE_Event_Handlers> that are passed in via the notify queue before breaking out of its event loop.

Implemented in ACE_Dev_Poll_Reactor_Notify, ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify, and ACE_WFMO_Reactor_Notify.

virtual void ACE_Reactor_Notify::max_notify_iterations int    [pure virtual]
 

Set the maximum number of times that the <handle_input> method will iterate and dispatch the <ACE_Event_Handlers> that are passed in via the notify queue before breaking out of the event loop. By default, this is set to -1, which means "iterate until the queue is empty." Setting this to a value like "1 or 2" will increase "fairness" (and thus prevent starvation) at the expense of slightly higher dispatching overhead.

Implemented in ACE_Dev_Poll_Reactor_Notify, ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify, and ACE_WFMO_Reactor_Notify.

virtual int ACE_Reactor_Notify::notify ACE_Event_Handler   = 0,
ACE_Reactor_Mask    = ACE_Event_Handler::EXCEPT_MASK,
ACE_Time_Value   = 0
[pure virtual]
 

Called by a thread when it wants to unblock the <Reactor_Impl>. This wakeups the <Reactor_Impl> if currently blocked. Pass over both the <Event_Handler> *and* the <mask> to allow the caller to dictate which <Event_Handler> method the <Reactor_Impl> will invoke. The <ACE_Time_Value> indicates how long to blocking trying to notify the <Reactor_Impl>. If <timeout> == 0, the caller will block until action is possible, else will wait until the relative time specified in *<timeout> elapses).

Implemented in ACE_Dev_Poll_Reactor_Notify, ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify, and ACE_WFMO_Reactor_Notify.

virtual ACE_HANDLE ACE_Reactor_Notify::notify_handle void    [pure virtual]
 

Returns the ACE_HANDLE of the notify pipe on which the reactor is listening for notifications so that other threads can unblock the <Reactor_Impl>

Implemented in ACE_Dev_Poll_Reactor_Notify, ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify, and ACE_WFMO_Reactor_Notify.

virtual int ACE_Reactor_Notify::open ACE_Reactor_Impl  ,
ACE_Timer_Queue   timer_queue = 0,
int    disable_notify = 0
[pure virtual]
 

Implemented in ACE_Dev_Poll_Reactor_Notify, ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify, and ACE_WFMO_Reactor_Notify.

virtual int ACE_Reactor_Notify::purge_pending_notifications ACE_Event_Handler   = 0,
ACE_Reactor_Mask    = ACE_Event_Handler::ALL_EVENTS_MASK
[pure virtual]
 

Purge any notifications pending in this reactor for the specified <ACE_Event_Handler> object. Returns the number of notifications purged. Returns -1 on error.

Implemented in ACE_Dev_Poll_Reactor_Notify, ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify, and ACE_WFMO_Reactor_Notify.

virtual int ACE_Reactor_Notify::read_notify_pipe ACE_HANDLE    handle,
ACE_Notification_Buffer   buffer
[pure virtual]
 

Read one of the notify call on the <handle> into the <buffer>. This could be because of a thread trying to unblock the <Reactor_Impl>

Implemented in ACE_Dev_Poll_Reactor_Notify, ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify, and ACE_WFMO_Reactor_Notify.
