ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM > Class Template Reference

This is an adapter that allows applications to transparently combine the ACE_Lock abstract base class (which contains pure virtual methods) with any of the other concrete ACE synchronization classes (e.g., ACE_Mutex, ACE_Semaphore, ACE_RW_Mutex, etc.). More...

Detailed Description

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>
class ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >

This is an adapter that allows applications to transparently combine the ACE_Lock abstract base class (which contains pure virtual methods) with any of the other concrete ACE synchronization classes (e.g., ACE_Mutex, ACE_Semaphore, ACE_RW_Mutex, etc.).

This class uses a form of the Adapter pattern.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>

ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::ACE_Lock_Adapter ( ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM &  lock )

inline

Constructor. All locking requests will be forwarded to lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>

ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::ACE_Lock_Adapter ( void  )

inline

Constructor. Since no lock is provided by the user, one will be created internally.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >

ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::~ACE_Lock_Adapter ( void  )

virtual

Destructor. If lock_ was not passed in by the user, it will be deleted.

Member Function Documentation

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >

int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::acquire ( void  )

virtual

Block the thread until the lock is acquired.

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >

int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::acquire_read ( void  )

virtual

Block until the thread acquires a read lock. If the locking mechanism doesn't support read locks then this just calls acquire().

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >

int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::acquire_write ( void  )

virtual

Block until the thread acquires a write lock. If the locking mechanism doesn't support read locks then this just calls acquire().

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >

int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::release ( void  )

virtual

Release the lock.

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >

int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::remove ( void  )

virtual

Explicitly destroy the lock.

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >

int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::tryacquire ( void  )

virtual

Conditionally acquire the lock (i.e., won't block).

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >

int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::tryacquire_read ( void  )

virtual

Conditionally acquire a read lock. If the locking mechanism doesn't support read locks then this just calls acquire().

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >

int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::tryacquire_write ( void  )

virtual

Conditionally acquire a write lock. If the locking mechanism doesn't support read locks then this just calls acquire().

Implements ACE_Lock.

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >

int ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::tryacquire_write_upgrade ( void  )

virtual

Conditionally try to upgrade a lock held for read to a write lock. If the locking mechanism doesn't support read locks then this just calls acquire(). Returns 0 on success, -1 on failure.

Implements ACE_Lock.

Member Data Documentation

bool ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::delete_lock_

private

This flag keep track of whether we are responsible for deleting the lock

template<class ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM>

ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM* ACE_Lock_Adapter< ACE_LOCKING_MECHANISM >::lock_

private

The concrete locking mechanism that all the methods delegate to.
