This class implements a mechanism that allows the values of a collection of ACE_Future objects to be accessed by reader threads as they become available. The caller(s) provide the ACE_Future_Set (i.e. the observer...) with the collection of ACE_Future objects (i.e. the subjects...) that are to be observed using the the ACE_Future_Set::insert() method. The caller(s) may then iterate over the collection in the order in which they become readable using the ACE_Future_Set::next_readable() method. More...

The caller(s) provide the ACE_Future_Set (i.e. the observer...) with the collection of ACE_Future objects (i.e. the subjects...) that are to be observed using the the ACE_Future_Set::insert() method.

Member Function Documentation

template<class T >

int ACE_Future_Set< T >::insert ( ACE_Future< T > & future )

Enqueus the given ACE_Future into this objects queue when it is readable.

Returns 0 if the future is successfully inserted, 1 if the future is already inserted, and -1 if failures occur.

template<class T >

int ACE_Future_Set< T >::is_empty ( void ) const

Return 1 if their are no ACE_Future objects left on its queue and 0 otherwise.

When an ACE_Future_Set has no ACE_Future>subjects to observe it is empty. The ACE_Future_Set is in the empty state when either the caller(s) have retrieved every readable ACE_Future subject assigned the ACE_Future_Set via the ACE_Future_Set::next_readable() method, or when the ACE_Future_Set has not been assigned any subjects.

template<class T >

int ACE_Future_Set< T >::next_readable	(	ACE_Future< T > &	result,
		ACE_Time_Value *	tv = `0`
	)

Wait up to tv time to get the value. Note that tv must be specified in absolute time rather than relative time.); get the next ACE_Future that is readable. If tv = 0, the will block forever.

If a readable future becomes available, then the input ACE_Future object param will be assigned with it and 1 will be returned. If the ACE_Future_Set is empty (i.e. see definition of ACE_Future_Set::is_empty()), then 0 is returned.

When a readable ACE_Future object is retrieved via the ACE_Future_Set::next_readable() method, the ACE_Future_Set will remove that ACE_Future object from its list of subjects.

template<class T >

void ACE_Future_Set< T >::update ( const ACE_Future< T > & future )

virtual

Called by the ACE_Future subject in which we are subscribed to when its value is written to.

Implements ACE_Future_Observer< T >.
