Detailed Description

Define the interface for the generators of timeout events.

The Event Channel can use several strategies to dispatch timers, for instance, it can use the ORB reactor or a pool of reactors running at different priorities or a pool of Thread_Timer_Queue_Adapters running at different priorities also. This class is the abstract base class to abstract this strategies.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void TAO_EC_Timeout_Generator::activate (  void    )  [pure virtual]

Activate any internal threads. Reimplemented in TAO_EC_Reactive_Timeout_Generator.

virtual int TAO_EC_Timeout_Generator::cancel_timer (  const TAO_EC_QOS_Info &    info, int    id )  [pure virtual]

Cancel a timer at the given priority. Reimplemented in TAO_EC_Reactive_Timeout_Generator.

virtual int TAO_EC_Timeout_Generator::schedule_timer (  TAO_EC_Timeout_Filter *    filter, const ACE_Time_Value &    delta, const ACE_Time_Value &    interval )  [pure virtual]

Add a timer at the given priority, returns the timer ID. Reimplemented in TAO_EC_Reactive_Timeout_Generator.

virtual void TAO_EC_Timeout_Generator::shutdown (  void    )  [pure virtual]

Deactivate any internal threads, clients can destroy the object after calling this method. Reimplemented in TAO_EC_Reactive_Timeout_Generator.
