I/O operations
Notes on common parameters: handle is the connected endpoint that will be used for I/O. buf is the buffer to write from or receive into. len is the number of bytes to transfer. The timeout parameter in the following methods indicates how long to blocking trying to transfer data. If timeout == 0, then the call behaves as a normal send/recv call, i.e., for blocking sockets, the call will block until action is possible; for non-blocking sockets, `EWOULDBLOCK` will be returned if no action is immediately possible. If timeout != 0, the call will wait until the relative time specified in timeout elapses. The "_n()" I/O methods keep looping until all the data has been transferred. These methods also work for sockets in non-blocking mode i.e., they keep looping on `EWOULDBLOCK`. timeout* is used to make sure we keep making progress, i.e., the same timeout value is used for every I/O operation in the loop and the timeout is not counted down. The return values for the "_n()" methods match the return values from the non "_n()" methods and are specified as follows: On complete transfer, the number of bytes transferred is returned. On timeout, -1 is returned, `errno` == `ETIME`. On error, -1 is returned, `errno` is set to appropriate error. On `EOF`, 0 is returned, `errno` is irrelevant. On partial transfers, i.e., if any data is transferred before timeout / error / `EOF`, bytes_transferred>* will contain the number of bytes transferred. Methods with iovec parameter are I/O vector variants of the I/O operations. Methods with the extra flags argument will always result in `send` getting called. Methods without the extra flags argument will result in `send` getting called on Win32 platforms, and `write` getting called on non-Win32 platforms.

ACE_UINT32 ACE::crc32 ( const char * str )

Computes the ISO 8802-3 standard 32 bits CRC for the string.

ACE_UINT32 ACE::crc32	(	const void *	buf,

		int	len,
		ACE_UINT32	crc = `0`
	)

Computes the ISO 8802-3 standard 32 bits CRC for the @ len iovec buffers.

ACE_UINT16 ACE::crc_ccitt ( const char * str )

		const ACE_TCHAR	program_name[] = `ACE_TEXT ("<unknown>")`
	)

Become a daemon process using the algorithm in Richard Stevens "Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment." If close_all_handles is non-zero then all open file handles are closed.

bool ACE::debug ( void )

void ACE::debug ( bool onoff )

const ACE_TCHAR * ACE::dirname	(	const ACE_TCHAR *	pathname,
		ACE_TCHAR	delim = `ACE_DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR_CHAR`
	)

Returns the "dirname" of a pathname. For instance, the dirname of "/tmp/foo.cpp" is "/tmp" when delim is '/'. If pathname has no delim ".\0" is returned. This method does not modify pathname and is not reentrant.

int ACE::enter_recv_timedwait	(	ACE_HANDLE	handle,
		const ACE_Time_Value *	timeout,
		int &	val
	)

Wait for timeout before proceeding to a recv operation. val keeps track of whether we're in non-blocking mode or not.

int ACE::enter_send_timedwait	(	ACE_HANDLE	handle,
		const ACE_Time_Value *	timeout,
		int &	val
	)

Wait for timeout before proceeding to a send operation. val keeps track of whether we're in non-blocking mode or not.

const ACE_TCHAR * ACE::execname ( const ACE_TCHAR * pathname )

On Windows, determines if a specified pathname ends with ".exe" (not case sensitive). If on Windows and there is no ".exe" suffix, a new ACE_TCHAR array is allocated and a copy of pathname with the ".exe" suffix is copied into it. In this case, the caller is responsible for calling delete [] on the returned pointer.

Parameters

pathname The name to check for a proper suffix.

Return values

int ACE::fini ( void )

Finalize the ACE library services and releases ACE's internal resources. In general, do not instantiate ACE classes or call methods on objects of these classes after ACE::fini() has been called.

Returns: Returns 0 on success, -1 on failure, and 1 if it had already been called.

pid_t ACE::fork	(	const ACE_TCHAR *	program_name = `ACE_TEXT ("<unknown>")`,
		int	avoid_zombies = `0`
	)

if avoid_zombies == 0 call ACE_OS::fork directly, else create an orphan process that's inherited by the init process; init cleans up when the orphan process terminates so we don't create zombies. Returns -1 on failure and either the child PID on success if avoid_zombies == 0 or 1 on success if avoid_zombies != 0 (this latter behavior is a known bug that needs to be fixed).

size_t ACE::format_hexdump	(	const char *	buffer,
		size_t	size,
		ACE_TCHAR *	obuf,
		size_t	obuf_sz
	)

Format buffer into printable format. This is useful for debugging.

Format buffer into printable format. This is useful for debugging. Portions taken from mdump by J.P. Knight (J.P.K.nosp@m.nigh.nosp@m.t@lut.nosp@m..ac..nosp@m.uk) Modifications by Todd Montgomery.

u_long ACE::gcd	(	u_long	x,

int ACE::get_bcast_addr	(	ACE_UINT32 &	bcast_addr,
		const ACE_TCHAR *	hostname = `0`,
		ACE_UINT32	host_addr = `0`,
		ACE_HANDLE	handle = `ACE_INVALID_HANDLE`
	)

Get our broadcast address based on our host_addr. If hostname is non-0 we'll use it to determine our IP address. If handle is not ACE_INVALID_HANDLE then we'll use this to determine our broadcast address, otherwise we'll have to create a socket internally (and free it). Returns -1 on failure and 0 on success.

int ACE::get_flags ( ACE_HANDLE handle )

inline

Return the current setting of flags associated with handle.

int ACE::get_fqdn	(	ACE_INET_Addr const &	addr,
		char	hostname[],
		size_t	len
	)

Get fully qualified host/domain name.

ACE_HANDLE ACE::get_handle ( void )

Routine to return a handle from which ioctl requests can be made. Caller must close the handle.

int ACE::get_ip_interfaces	(	size_t &	count,
		ACE_INET_Addr *&	addr_array
	)

Return count and array of all configured IP interfaces on this host, rc = 0 on success (count == number of interfaces else -1). Caller is responsible for calling delete [] on addr_array.

int ACE::get_temp_dir	(	ACE_TCHAR *	buffer,
		size_t	buffer_len
	)

Returns the temporary directory including the trailing slash in buffer. Returns -1 for an error or if the buffer_len is not long enough.

int ACE::handle_exception_ready	(	ACE_HANDLE	handle,
		const ACE_Time_Value *	timeout
	)

inline

Timed wait for handle to get exception ready.

Return values

-1	for error
0	for timeout
1	the handle is ready

int ACE::handle_read_ready	(	ACE_HANDLE	handle,

		const ACE_Time_Value *	timeout,
		int	read_ready,
		int	write_ready,
		int	exception_ready
	)

Timed wait for handle to get read, write, or exception ready.

Return values

-1	for error
0	for timeout
1	the handle is ready

int ACE::handle_timed_accept	(	ACE_HANDLE	listener,
		ACE_Time_Value *	timeout,
		bool	restart
	)

Wait up to timeout amount of time to passively establish a connection. This method doesn't perform the accept, it just does the timed wait.

ACE_HANDLE ACE::handle_timed_complete	(	ACE_HANDLE	listener,
		const ACE_Time_Value *	timeout,
		int	is_tli = `0`

		size_t	time_len,
		bool	return_pointer_to_first_digit = `false`
	)

Translate the given timestamp to ISO-8601 format.

Parameters

time_value	ACE_Time_Value to format. This is assumed to be an absolute time value.
date_and_time	Array to hold the timestamp.
time_len	Size of date_and_time in ACE_TCHARs. Must be greater than or equal to 27.
return_pointer_to_first_digit	If true, returned pointer value is to the first time digit, else to the space prior to the first time digit. See Return Values.

Return values

0	if unsuccessful, with errno set. If time_len is less than 27 errno will be EINVAL.
If	successful, pointer to beginning of the "time" portion of date_and_time. If return_pointer_to_first_digit is false the pointer is actually to the space before the time, else the pointer is to the first time digit.

ACE_TCHAR * ACE::timestamp	(	ACE_TCHAR	date_and_time[],
		size_t	time_len,
		bool	return_pointer_to_first_digit = `false`
	)

Translate the current time to ISO-8601 timestamp format.

Parameters

date_and_time	Array to hold the timestamp.
time_len	Size of date_and_time in ACE_TCHARs. Must be greater than or equal to 27.
return_pointer_to_first_digit	If true, returned pointer value is to the first time digit, else to the space prior to the first time digit. See Return Values.

Return values

0	if unsuccessful, with errno set. If time_len is less than 27 errno will be EINVAL.
If	successful, pointer to beginning of the "time" portion of date_and_time. If return_pointer_to_first_digit is false the pointer is actually to the space before the time, else the pointer is to the first time digit.

void ACE::unique_name	(	const void *	object,
		ACE_TCHAR *	name,
		size_t	length
	)

inline

This method uses process id and object pointer to come up with a machine wide unique name. The process ID will provide uniqueness between processes on the same machine. The "this" pointer of the {object} will provide uniqueness between other "live" objects in the same process. The uniqueness of this name is therefore only valid for the life of {object}.

bool ACE::wild_match	(	const char *	s,
		const char *	pattern,
		bool	case_sensitive = `true`,
		bool	character_classes = `false`
	)

Simple wildcard matching function supporting '*' and '?' return true if string s matches pattern. If character_classes is true, '[' is treated as a wildcard character as described in the fnmatch() POSIX API. The following POSIX "bracket expression" features are not implemented: collating symbols, equivalence class expressions, and character class expressions. The POSIX locale is assumed.

ssize_t ACE::write_n	(	ACE_HANDLE	handle,
		const void *	buf,
		size_t	len,
		size_t *	bytes_transferred = `0`
	)

inline

Receive into a variable number of pieces.

Accepts a variable, caller-specified, number of pointer/length pairs. Arguments following n are char *, size_t pairs.

Parameters

handle	The I/O handle to receive on
n	The total number of char *, size_t pairs following n.

Returns: -1 on error, else total number of bytes received.

ssize_t ACE::write_n	(	ACE_HANDLE	handle,
		const ACE_Message_Block *	message_block,
		size_t *	bytes_transferred = `0`
	)

Write all the message_blocks chained through their next and cont pointers. This call uses the underlying OS gather-write operation to reduce the domain-crossing penalty.

ssize_t ACE::writev_n	(	ACE_HANDLE	handle,
		const iovec *	iov,
		int	iovcnt,
		size_t *	bytes_transferred = `0`
	)

Receive into a variable number of pieces.

Accepts a variable, caller-specified, number of pointer/length pairs. Arguments following n are char *, size_t pairs.

Parameters

handle	The I/O handle to receive on
n	The total number of char *, size_t pairs following n.

Returns: -1 on error, else total number of bytes received.

size_t ACE::allocation_granularity_ = 0

char ACE::debug_

unsigned int ACE::init_fini_count_ = 0

Counter to match init()/fini() calls. init() must increment it; fini() must decrement it. fini() then does nothing until it reaches 0.

size_t ACE::pagesize_ = 0
