Detailed Description

Specialize TAO_Queued_Message for synchronous requests, i.e. twoways and oneways sent with reliability better than SYNC_NONE.

Reliable requests block the sending thread until the message is sent, likewise, the sending thread must be informed if the connection is closed or the message times out.

In contrast oneway (and AMI) requests sent with the SYNC_NONE policy are simple discarded if the connection fails or they timeout.

Another important difference is the management of the data buffer: one SYNC_NONE messages the buffer is immediately copied into a newly allocated buffer, and must be deallocated. Other types of requests use the memory allocated by the sending thread.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

TAO_Synch_Queued_Message::TAO_Synch_Queued_Message (  const ACE_Message_Block *    contents, ACE_Allocator *    alloc = 0 )

Parameters: contents  The message block chain that must be sent. alloc  The allocator that is used to allocate objects of this type.

TAO_Synch_Queued_Message::~TAO_Synch_Queued_Message (  void    )  [virtual]

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

int TAO_Synch_Queued_Message::all_data_sent (  void    )  const [virtual]

Return 1 if all the data has been sent. Reimplemented from TAO_Queued_Message.

void TAO_Synch_Queued_Message::bytes_transferred (  size_t &    byte_count )  [virtual]

After the TAO_Transport class completes a successful (or partially successful) I/O operation it must update the state of all the messages queued. This callback method is used by each message to update its state and determine if all the data has been sent already. Parameters: byte_count  The number of bytes succesfully sent. The TAO_Queued_Message should decrement this value by the number of bytes that must still be sent. Returns: Returns 1 if the TAO_Queued_Message has any more data to send. Reimplemented from TAO_Queued_Message.

TAO_Queued_Message * TAO_Synch_Queued_Message::clone (  ACE_Allocator *    alloc )  [virtual]

Clone this element. Reimplemented from TAO_Queued_Message.

const ACE_Message_Block * TAO_Synch_Queued_Message::current_block (  void    )  const

void TAO_Synch_Queued_Message::destroy (  void    )  [virtual]

Reliable messages are allocated from the stack, thus they do not be deallocated. Asynchronous (SYNC_NONE) messages are allocated from the heap (or a pool), they need to be reclaimed explicitly. Reimplemented from TAO_Queued_Message.

void TAO_Synch_Queued_Message::fill_iov (  int    iovcnt_max, int &    iovcnt, iovec    iov[] )  const [virtual]

Different versions of this class represent the message using either a single buffer, or a message block. This method allows a derived class to fill up the contents of an io vector, the TAO_Transport class uses this method to group as many messages as possible in an iovector before sending them to the OS I/O subsystem. Parameters: iovcnt_max  The number of elements in iov iovcnt  The number of elements already used by iov, this method should update this counter iov  The io vector Reimplemented from TAO_Queued_Message.

size_t TAO_Synch_Queued_Message::message_length (  void    )  const [virtual]

If the message has been partially sent it returns the number of bytes that are still not sent. Reimplemented from TAO_Queued_Message.

Member Data Documentation

ACE_Message_Block* TAO_Synch_Queued_Message::contents_ [private]

The message is normally generated by a TAO_OutputCDR stream. The application marshals the payload, possibly generating a chain of message block connected via the 'cont()' field.

ACE_Message_Block* TAO_Synch_Queued_Message::current_block_ [private]

The message may be set in multiple writev() operations. This point keeps track of the next message to send out.
