Detailed Description

Handling of subscriptions.

This class, as a base class, allows to keep track of other objects using a specific object. It is used to avoid that pointers that point to an object of a class derived from Subscriptor are referenced after that object has been invalidated. Here, invalidation is assumed to happen when the object is moved from or destroyed. The mechanism works as follows: The member function subscribe() accepts a pointer to a boolean that is modified on invalidation. The object that owns this pointer (usually an object of class type SmartPointer) is then expected to check the state of the boolean before trying to access this class.

The utility of this class is even enhanced by providing identifying strings to the functions subscribe() and unsubscribe(). These strings are represented as const char pointers since the underlying buffer comes from (and is managed by) the run-time type information system: more exactly, these pointers are the result the function call typeid(x).name() where x is some object. Therefore, the pointers provided to subscribe() and to unsubscribe() must be the same. Strings with equal contents will not be recognized to be the same. The handling in SmartPointer will take care of this. The current subscribers to this class can be obtained by calling list_subscribers().

Member Typedef Documentation

map_value_type

using Subscriptor::map_value_type = decltype(counter_map)::value_type

private

The data type used in counter_map.

Definition at line 229 of file subscriptor.h.

map_iterator

using Subscriptor::map_iterator = decltype(counter_map)::iterator

private

The iterator type used in counter_map.

Definition at line 234 of file subscriptor.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Subscriptor() [1/3]

Subscriptor::Subscriptor ( )

inline

Constructor setting the counter to zero.

Definition at line 276 of file subscriptor.h.

Subscriptor() [2/3]

Subscriptor::Subscriptor ( const Subscriptor & )

inline

Copy-constructor.

The counter of the copy is zero, since references point to the original object.

Definition at line 283 of file subscriptor.h.

Subscriptor() [3/3]

Subscriptor::Subscriptor ( Subscriptor && subscriptor )

noexcept

Move constructor.

An object inheriting from Subscriptor can only be moved if no other objects are subscribing to it.

Definition at line 32 of file subscriptor.cc.

~Subscriptor()

Subscriptor::~Subscriptor ( )

virtual

Destructor, asserting that the counter is zero.

Definition at line 43 of file subscriptor.cc.

Member Function Documentation

operator=() [1/2]

Subscriptor & Subscriptor::operator= ( const Subscriptor & s )

inline

Assignment operator.

This has to be handled with care, too, because the counter has to remain the same. It therefore does nothing more than returning *this.

Definition at line 291 of file subscriptor.h.

operator=() [2/2]

Subscriptor & Subscriptor::operator= ( Subscriptor && s )

noexcept

Move assignment operator. Only invalidates the object moved from.

Definition at line 123 of file subscriptor.cc.

subscribe()

void Subscriptor::subscribe	(	std::atomic< bool > *const	validity,
		const std::string &	identifier = "" ) const

Subscribes a user of the object by storing the pointer validity. The subscriber may be identified by text supplied as identifier.

Definition at line 135 of file subscriptor.cc.

unsubscribe()

void Subscriptor::unsubscribe	(	std::atomic< bool > *const	validity,
		const std::string &	identifier = "" ) const

Unsubscribes a user from the object.

Note

The identifier and the validity pointer must be the same as the one supplied to subscribe().

Definition at line 155 of file subscriptor.cc.

n_subscriptions()

unsigned int Subscriptor::n_subscriptions ( ) const

inline

Return the present number of subscriptions to this object. This allows to use this class for reference counted lifetime determination where the last one to unsubscribe also deletes the object.

Definition at line 300 of file subscriptor.h.

list_subscribers() [1/2]

template<typename StreamType >

void Subscriptor::list_subscribers ( StreamType & stream ) const

inline

List the subscribers to the input stream.

Definition at line 317 of file subscriptor.h.

list_subscribers() [2/2]

void Subscriptor::list_subscribers

(

)

const

List the subscribers to deallog.

Definition at line 203 of file subscriptor.cc.

serialize()

template<class Archive >

void Subscriptor::serialize ( Archive & ar, const unsigned int version )

inline

Read or write the data of this object to or from a stream for the purpose of serialization using the BOOST serialization library.

This function does not actually serialize any of the member variables of this class. The reason is that what this class stores is only who subscribes to this object, but who does so at the time of storing the contents of this object does not necessarily have anything to do with who subscribes to the object when it is restored. Consequently, we do not want to overwrite the subscribers at the time of restoring, and then there is no reason to write the subscribers out in the first place.

Definition at line 309 of file subscriptor.h.

check_no_subscribers()

void Subscriptor::check_no_subscribers ( ) const

privatenoexcept

Check that there are no objects subscribing to this object. If this check passes then it is safe to destroy the current object. It this check fails then this function will either abort or print an error message to deallog (by using the AssertNothrow mechanism), but will not throw an exception.

Note

Since this function is just a consistency check it does nothing in release mode.

If this function is called when there is an uncaught exception then, rather than aborting, this function prints an error message to the standard error stream and returns.

Definition at line 52 of file subscriptor.cc.

Member Data Documentation

counter

std::atomic<unsigned int> Subscriptor::counter

mutableprivate

Store the number of objects which subscribed to this object. Initially, this number is zero, and upon destruction it shall be zero again (i.e. all objects which subscribed should have unsubscribed again).

The creator (and owner) of an object is counted in the map below if HE manages to supply identification.

We use the mutable keyword in order to allow subscription to constant objects also.

This counter may be read from and written to concurrently in multithreaded code: hence we use the std::atomic class template.

Definition at line 218 of file subscriptor.h.

counter_map

std::map<std::string, unsigned int> Subscriptor::counter_map

mutableprivate

In this map, we count subscriptions for each different identification string supplied to subscribe().

Definition at line 224 of file subscriptor.h.

validity_pointers

std::vector<std::atomic<bool> *> Subscriptor::validity_pointers

mutableprivate

In this vector, we store pointers to the validity bool in the SmartPointer objects that subscribe to this class.

Definition at line 240 of file subscriptor.h.

object_info

const std::type_info* Subscriptor::object_info

mutableprivate

Pointer to the typeinfo object of this object, from which we can later deduce the class name. Since this information on the derived class is neither available in the destructor, nor in the constructor, we obtain it in between and store it here.

Definition at line 248 of file subscriptor.h.

mutex

std::mutex Subscriptor::mutex

staticprivate

A mutex used to ensure data consistency when accessing the mutable members of this class. This lock is used in the subscribe() and unsubscribe() functions, as well as in list_subscribers().

Definition at line 271 of file subscriptor.h.
