Detailed Description

template<class T> class nc::SimpleConsumer< T >

SimpleConsumer is used to consume data from a notification channel defined by the string passed to SimpleConsumer’s constructor. In a nutshell, this class has been provided so that developers do not have to subclass Consumer and can instead use a generic function to process events.

To begin consuming data, simply invoke the consumerReady method. After that, the eventHandlerFunction will be invoked asynchronously each time an event is received.

TODO:

add a check on the datatype in push_structured_event

support subscriptions to multiple event types...may not be feasible

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class T> nc::SimpleConsumer< T >::SimpleConsumer (const char * channelName, const char * acsNCDomainName = 0) Constructor to be used within components.

Parameters:

channelName The channel’s name
acsNCDomain
name of the ACS NC domain name. This is an optional parameter. It will default to acscommon::NAMESERVICE_BINDING_NC_DOMAIN_DEFAULT if it is not specified.

template<class T> virtual nc::SimpleConsumer< T >::~SimpleConsumer () [protected, virtual] Destructor is protected.

template<class T> nc::SimpleConsumer< T >::SimpleConsumer (const SimpleConsumer< T > &) [private] ALMA C++ coding standards state copy constructors should be disabled.

Member Function Documentation

template<class T> template<class J > void nc::SimpleConsumer< T >::addSubscription (eventHandlerFunction templateFunction, void * handlerParam = 0) [inline] A special version of the addSubscription method. Not only subscribes to an event_type, but it also saves a function pointer and an extra paremter to the function to be utilized when an event of type_name is received. Currently the implementation only allows this method to be invoked once (and that is done from the ACSNC_NEW_SIMPLE_CONSUMER macro). The template paramter is the type_name of the event to be received.

Parameters:

templateFunction A (static) method which will be invoked each time a type_name event is received. The method must accept a <T> structure as it’s first parameter.
handlerParam
A void pointer that will be passed to templateFunction (in addition to the actual ICD <T> event) each time a type_name event is received.

Exceptions:

ACSErrTypeCommon::CouldntPerformActionEx

Returns:

void

template<class T> void nc::SimpleConsumer< T >::addSubscription (const char * type_name, eventHandlerFunction templateFunction, void * handlerParam = 0) [private] A special version of the addSubscription method. Not only subscribes to an event_type, but it also saves a function pointer and an extra paremter to the function to be utilized when an event of type_name is received. Currently the implementation only allows this method to be invoked once (and that is done from the ACSNC_NEW_SIMPLE_CONSUMER macro).

Parameters:

type_name Type of the event to be received
templateFunction
A (static) method which will be invoked each time a type_name event is received. The method must accept a <T> structure as it’s first parameter.
handlerParam
A void pointer that will be passed to templateFunction (in addition to the actual ICD <T> event) each time a type_name event is received.

Returns:

void

template<class T> virtual void nc::SimpleConsumer< T >::disconnect () [virtual] Disconnect from the channel. Call this instead of deleting the object. Once disconnect has been invoked, developers should treat the object as if it has been deleted.

Returns:

void

Reimplemented from nc::Consumer.

template<class T> static void* nc::SimpleConsumer< T >::dispatchEvent (void * args) [static, private] Entry point for the buffer’s consumer thread

template<class T> void nc::SimpleConsumer< T >::operator= (const SimpleConsumer< T > &) [private] ALMA C++ coding standards state assignment operators should be disabled.

template<class T> void nc::SimpleConsumer< T >::processEvent () It just invokes some function registered via the addSubscription method

template<class T> virtual void nc::SimpleConsumer< T >::push_structured_event (const CosNotification::StructuredEvent & notification) [virtual] This is the abstract method inherited Consumer which must be overridden. In the SimpleConsumer class, it just invokes some function registered via the addSubscription method. In doing this, one does not have to override SimpleConsumer. Note that this method must not be invoked by your code!

Exceptions:

CosEventComm::Disconnected

Returns:

void

Implements nc::Consumer.
