Guard class against code repetitions.

This class intends to be a generic class to avoid repetition of code blocks. It is also intended as a base class for other specific uses, such as RepetGuardLogger.

RepeatGuard::RepeatGuard (ACS::TimeInterval interval, unsigned int maxRepetitions, bool or_or_and = true) Constructor

Parameters:

interval minimum interval between allowing an action(i.e. check returns true)(in 100ns)(condition 1)
maxRepetitions maxRepetitions between logs.(condition 2)
OR true: conditions 1 or 2 must be met, false: conditions 1 and 2 must be met. Ignored if interval or maxRepetitions is zero.

RepeatGuard::~RepeatGuard ()

bool RepeatGuard::check () This method returns true or false if the next block of code is allowed to be executed or not.

Returns:

true if the conditions to allow an action have been met(conditions depend on the constructor used)

Referenced by Logging::RepeatGuardLogger< ALogger >::log().

bool RepeatGuard::checkAndIncrement () This method returns true or false if the next block of code is allowed to be executed or not. Also it increments the counter.

Returns:

true if the conditions to allow an action have been met(conditions depend on the constructor used)

Referenced by Logging::RepeatGuardLogger< ALogger >::logAndIncrement().

unsigned int RepeatGuard::count () To see how many attempts have been made.

Returns:

the counter at the moment of the last call to check() or checkAndIncrement()

Referenced by Logging::RepeatGuardLogger< ALogger >::log(), and Logging::RepeatGuardLogger< ALogger >::logAndIncrement().

void RepeatGuard::increment () Increments the repetition counter.

void RepeatGuard::reset (ACS::TimeInterval interval, unsigned int maxRepetitions, bool or_or_and = true) Resets counter and time of the last time check() returned true.

Parameters:

interval minimum interval between allowing an action(i.e. check returns true)(in 100ns)(condition 1)
maxRepetitions maxRepetitions between logs.(condition 2)
OR true: conditions 1 or 2 must be met, false: conditions 1 and 2 must be met. Ignored if interval or maxRepetitions is zero.

void RepeatGuard::reset () Resets counter and time of the last time check() returned true.
