ACE_THR_FUNC_RETURN ACE_Event_Handler::read_adapter ( void *  event_handler  )  [static]

Used to read from non-socket ACE_HANDLEs in our own thread to work around Win32 limitations that don't allow us to <select> on non-sockets (such as ACE_STDIN). This is commonly used in situations where the Reactor is used to demultiplex read events on ACE_STDIN on UNIX. Note that event_handler must be a subclass of ACE_Event_Handler. If the get_handle() method of this event handler returns ACE_INVALID_HANDLE we default to reading from ACE_STDIN.

Definition at line 248 of file Event_Handler.cpp.

{
  ACE_Event_Handler *this_ptr = static_cast<ACE_Event_Handler *> (args);
  ACE_Reactor *r = this_ptr->reactor ();

  while (this_ptr->handle_input (ACE_STDIN) != -1)
    continue;

  this_ptr->handle_close (ACE_STDIN, ACE_Event_Handler::READ_MASK);

}

int ACE_Event_Handler::register_stdin_handler ( ACE_Event_Handler eh,
ACE_Reactor reactor,
ACE_Thread_Manager thr_mgr,
int  flags = THR_DETACHED 
) [static]

Abstracts away from the differences between Win32 and ACE with respect to reading from ACE_STDIN, which is non-<select>'able on Win32.

Definition at line 265 of file Event_Handler.cpp.

{
#if defined (ACE_WIN32)
  ACE_UNUSED_ARG (reactor);

  eh->reactor (reactor);

#endif /* ACE_WIN32 */
}

ACE_Event_Handler::Reference_Count ACE_Event_Handler::remove_reference ( void   )  [virtual]

Decrement reference count on the handler.

This method is called when the handler is removed from the Reactor and when an upcall made on the handler by the Reactor completes. Handler is deleted when the reference count reaches 0.

Returns:
Current reference count.

Definition at line 198 of file Event_Handler.cpp.

{
  bool const reference_counting_required =
    this->reference_counting_policy ().value () ==
    ACE_Event_Handler::Reference_Counting_Policy::ENABLED;

      Reference_Count result =
        --this->reference_count_;

      if (result == 0)
        delete this;

      return result;
    }
  else
    {
      return 1;
    }
}

int ACE_Event_Handler::remove_stdin_handler ( ACE_Reactor reactor,
ACE_Thread_Manager thr_mgr 
) [static]

Performs the inverse of the register_stdin_handler() method.

Definition at line 286 of file Event_Handler.cpp.

{
#if defined (ACE_WIN32)
  ACE_UNUSED_ARG (reactor);

  // What should we do here?
  ACE_NOTSUP_RETURN (-1);
#else
  return reactor->remove_handler (ACE_STDIN,
                                  ACE_Event_Handler::READ_MASK);
#endif /* ACE_WIN32 */
}

int ACE_Event_Handler::resume_handler ( void   )  [virtual]

Called to figure out whether the handler needs to resumed by the reactor or the application can take care of it. The default value of 0 would be returned which would allow the reactor to take care of resumption of the handler. The application can return a value more than zero and decide to resume the handler themseleves.

Note:
This method has an affect only when used with the ACE_Dev_Poll_Reactor (and then, only on Linux) or the ACE_TP_Reactor.

Reimplemented in ACE_NonBlocking_Connect_Handler< SVC_HANDLER >.

Definition at line 139 of file Event_Handler.cpp.

{
  ACE_TRACE ("ACE_Event_Handler::resume_handler");

  // Return a default value and allow the reactor to take care of
  // resuming the handler
  return ACE_Event_Handler::ACE_REACTOR_RESUMES_HANDLER;
}

void ACE_Event_Handler::set_handle ( ACE_HANDLE   )  [virtual]

Set the I/O handle.
