This class is available for the OPUS Blackboard API. The initial OPUS 2.0 release is described here
Constructors:
Time_event( ) | |
~Time_event( ) |
Methods:
clone( ) | returns a copy of this object and sets the event trigger name and triggering entries |
add_callback( ) | assigns a callback function for this event type |
process( ) | calls Opus_env::close_event with Opus_env::IGNORE_EVENT if no callback is registered, // otherwise it calls the callback function |
pstat_mesg( ) | gets the Proc_stat object with which the process' PSTAT status field can be updated to indicate this event has occurred |
Description
This type of object is created for events on either the absolute time blackboard or the relative time blackboard. The client must register a callback function for this event in order to process it (otherwise, the process method calls Opus_env::close_event with Opus_env::IGNORE_EVENT).
Derived from
See Also:
Time_event::Time_event - The Time_event constructor.
Synopsis
Time_event::Time_event( Blackboard* bbrd) // I - pointer to a Time // Blackboard Time_event::Time_event( Blackboard* bbrd, // I - pointer to a Time // Blackboard const string& s, // I - Trigger name const vector<Entry*>& v) // I - triggers
Description
These methods create either a Time_event object to be used as a factory or in response to an actual event. In the former case, only the blackboard on which this event occurs need be specified-- the object can then be used to create clones whenever a real event occurs. In the case of a real event, the trigger name and the vector of entry objects that are responsible for the event also are specified.
Warning: no checks are made that the correct blackboard type and entry types are used as calling arguments.
Exceptions Thrown
Time_event::~Time_event - The Time_event destructor.
Synopsis
Time_event::~Time_event()
Description
This method destroys the object.
Exceptions Thrown
Time_event::clone - Create a copy of this object.
Synopsis
Event* Time_event::clone() const Event* Time_event::clone( const string& s, // I - Trigger name const vector<Entry*>& v) // I - triggers const
Description
These methods create a new File_event object off the heap using the constructor with the same signature. The caller should delete the new object when it is no longer needed.
Returns
A pointer to the new Time_event object.
Exceptions Thrown
Time_event::pstat_mesg - Get Proc_stat object for updating the application's PSTAT status field.
Synopsis
Proc_stat* Time_event::pstat_mesg() const
Description
This method creates a new Proc_stat object containing Proc_stat::PROCESSING.
Returns
A pointer to the Proc_stat object.
Exceptions Thrown
Time_event::add_callback - Register the callback funtion for event processing.
Synopsis
void Time_event::add_callback( void (*pf)(const string&, // I - callback Event*, const Opus_env&))
Description
This method takes a function pointer that will serve as a callback function for all events of this type. The callback function foo must have a signature and return type of
void foo(const string&, Event*, const Opus_env&)This method is static and specifies a callback function for all File_event objects until it is replaced.
Exceptions Thrown
Time_event::process - Process the event.
Synopsis
void Time_event::process( const Opus_env& oenv) // I - Opus_env object
Description
This method calls the callback function if it has been set with the set_callback method. Otherwise, Opus_env::close_event is called with Opus_env::IGNORE_EVENT. The callback function will be passed the trigger name as the first argument, a pointer to this event object as the second argument, and a reference to the process' Opus_env object as the third argument.
Exceptions Thrown
Bad_val<Event*> | - if the Event argument is NULL; Bad_val.arg contains the calling argument |
Bad_val<string> | - if the status is not found; Bad_val.arg contains the calling argument |
Exec<vector<Event::iterator>> | - if a failure occurs for any entry; Exec.arg contains a vector of iterators that point to the failed items |
