Detailed Description

Base class for Persistent Topology Objects.

Topology objects must be derived from this class to allow themselves to be persisted. Note: virtual inheritance from TopologySavable is unnecessary, but HP ACC compiler warns if it's not there.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

TAO_Notify::Topology_Object::Topology_Object (  ) 

The constructor.

TAO_Notify::Topology_Object::~Topology_Object (  )  [virtual]

The destructor.


Member Function Documentation

bool TAO_Notify::Topology_Object::change_to_parent ( void   )  [private, virtual]

Send change to parent.

Override this if you don't expect to have a parent (top level of tree) private virtual because this should only be called from send_change()

Returns:
false if save will never happen

Reimplemented in TAO_Notify_EventChannelFactory.

TAO_Notify_Object::ID TAO_Notify::Topology_Object::get_id (  )  const [virtual]

Find the id associated with topology object.

A bit of a hack because id is unknown to Topology_Object the get_id returns the same thing as id -- we just need someone to find it for us.

Reimplemented in TAO_Notify_EventChannel, and TAO_Notify_EventChannelFactory.

void TAO_Notify::Topology_Object::get_id_path ( IdVec id_path  )  const

Get the path of id's from the root to this object.

void TAO_Notify::Topology_Object::initialize ( Topology_Parent topology_parent  )  [virtual]

Init this object with data from <rhs>.

ACE_INLINE bool TAO_Notify::Topology_Object::is_changed (  )  const

Is there an unsaved change for this object or its children?

bool TAO_Notify::Topology_Object::is_persistent (  )  const [protected, virtual]

Should this object be saved?

This is a way for send_change() and save_persistent() to find out if this object has a persistent QoS connection property.

Returns:
true (default) if object should be saved.

Reimplemented in TAO_Notify_EventChannelFactory.

Topology_Object * TAO_Notify::Topology_Object::load_child ( const ACE_CString ,
CORBA::Long  ,
const NVPList  
) [virtual]

Create a child of the appropriate type and return it.

Use "type" as passed in to determine what kind of child (supporting the Topology_Object interface) to create and return. Inform it of its new ID.

Reimplemented in TAO_Notify_Admin, TAO_Notify_ConsumerAdmin, TAO_Notify_EventChannel, TAO_Notify_EventChannelFactory, TAO_Notify_EventTypeSeq, TAO_Notify_FilterAdmin, TAO_Notify_Proxy, TAO_Notify::Reconnection_Registry, and TAO_Notify_SupplierAdmin.

bool TAO_Notify::Topology_Object::self_change ( void   )  [protected]

Method to report change in this object.

see also Topology_Parent::child_change ()

Returns:
false if save will never happen

bool TAO_Notify::Topology_Object::send_change ( void   )  [protected]

Handle details of propagating change.

Returns:
false if save will never happen

Topology_Parent * TAO_Notify::Topology_Object::topology_parent (  )  const [protected]

pointer to our topological parent

Returns:
0 if none

bool TAO_Notify::Topology_Object::self_changed_ [protected]

true if this object changed since last save_persistent
