class SocketService

Additional Inherited Members

The socket port is an internal class which is attached to and then serviced by a specific SocketService 'object'.

Derived versions of this class offer specific functionality for specific protocols. Both Common C++ supporting frameworks and application objects may be derived from related protocol specific base classes.

A special set of classes, 'SocketPort' and 'SocketService', exist for building realtime streaming media servers on top of UDP and TCP protocols. The 'SocketPort' is used to hold a connected or associated TCP or UDP socket which is being 'streamed' and which offers callback methods that are invoked from a 'SocketService' thread. SocketService's can be pooled into logical thread pools that can service a group of SocketPorts. A millisecond accurate 'timer' is associated with each SocketPort and can be used to time synchronize SocketPort I/O operations.

Examples: tcpservice.cpp.

ost::SocketPort::SocketPort (\fBSocketService\fP *svc, \fBTCPSocket\fP &tcp)\fC [protected]\fP

Construct an accepted TCP socket connection from a specific bound TCP server. This is meant to derive advanced application specific TCP servers that can be thread pooled.

Parameters:

svc pool thread object.

tcp socket object to accept.

ost::SocketPort::SocketPort (\fBSocketService\fP *svc, \fBTCPV6Socket\fP &tcp)\fC [protected]\fP

ost::SocketPort::SocketPort (\fBSocketService\fP *svc, const \fBIPV4Address\fP &ia, \fBtpport_t\fPport)\fC [protected]\fP

Construct a bound UDP socket for use in deriving realtime UDP streaming protocols handled by thread pool objects.

Parameters:

svc pool thread object.

ia address of interface to bind.

port number to bind to.

ost::SocketPort::SocketPort (\fBSocketService\fP *svc, const \fBIPV6Address\fP &ia, \fBtpport_t\fPport)\fC [protected]\fP

ost::SocketPort::SocketPort (\fBSocketService\fP *svc, const \fBIPV4Host\fP &ih, \fBtpport_t\fPport)\fC [protected]\fP

A non-blocking constructor for outbound tcp connections. To detect when the connection is established, overload SocketPort::output(). SocketPort::output() get's called by the SocketService when the connection is ready, SocketPort::disconnect() when the connect failed. at the moment you should set the socket state to 'CONNECTED' when SocketPort::output() get's called for the first time.

Parameters:

svc pool thread object.

ih addess to connect to.

port number to connect to.

ost::SocketPort::SocketPort (\fBSocketService\fP *svc, const \fBIPV6Host\fP &ih, \fBtpport_t\fPport)\fC [protected]\fP

virtual ost::SocketPort::~SocketPort ()\fC [protected]\fP, \fC [virtual]\fP

Disconnect the socket from the service thread pool and the remote connection.

void ost::SocketPort::attach (\fBSocketService\fP *svc)\fC [protected]\fP

Attach yourself to the service pool thread object. The later version.

Parameters:

svc pool thread object

\fBError\fP ost::SocketPort::connect (const \fBIPV4Address\fP &ia, \fBtpport_t\fPport)\fC [protected]\fP

Connect a Socket Port to a known peer host. This is normally used with the UDP constructor. This is also performed as a non-blocking operation under Posix systems to prevent delays in a callback handler.

Returns:

0 if successful.

Parameters:

ia address of remote host or subnet.

port number of remote peer(s).

\fBError\fP ost::SocketPort::connect (const \fBIPV6Address\fP &ia, \fBtpport_t\fPport)\fC [protected]\fP

virtual void ost::SocketPort::disconnect (void)\fC [protected]\fP, \fC [virtual]\fP

Called by the service thread pool when a disconnect has occured.

virtual void ost::SocketPort::expired (void)\fC [protected]\fP, \fC [virtual]\fP

Called by the service thread pool when the objects timer has expired. Used for timed events.

bool ost::SocketPort::getDetectOutput (void) const\fC [inline]\fP, \fC [protected]\fP

Get the current state of the DetectOutput flag.

bool ost::SocketPort::getDetectPending (void) const\fC [inline]\fP, \fC [protected]\fP

Get the current state of the DetectPending flag.

void ost::SocketPort::incTimer (\fBtimeout_t\fPtimeout)

Derived incTimer to notify the service thread pool of a change in expected timeout. This allows SocketService to reschedule all timers. Otherwise same as TimerPort.

Parameters:

timeout in milliseconds.

virtual void ost::SocketPort::output (void)\fC [protected]\fP, \fC [virtual]\fP

Called by the service thread pool when output data is pending for this socket.

ssize_t ost::SocketPort::peek (void *buf, size_tlen)\fC [inline]\fP, \fC [protected]\fP

Examine the content of the next packet. This can be used to build 'smart' line buffering for derived TCP classes.

Parameters:

buf pointer to packet buffer to examine.

len of packet buffer to examine.

Returns:

number of bytes actually available.

virtual void ost::SocketPort::pending (void)\fC [protected]\fP, \fC [virtual]\fP

Called by the service thread pool when input data is pending for this socket.

ssize_t ost::SocketPort::receive (void *buf, size_tlen)\fC [inline]\fP, \fC [protected]\fP

Receive a message from any host. This is used in derived classes to build protocols.

Parameters:

buf pointer to packet buffer to receive.

len of packet buffer to receive.

Returns:

number of bytes received.

References _IOLEN64.

ssize_t ost::SocketPort::send (const void *buf, size_tlen)\fC [inline]\fP, \fC [protected]\fP

Transmit 'send' data to a connected peer host. This is not public by default since an overriding protocol is likely to be used in a derived class.

Returns:

number of bytes sent.

Parameters:

buf address of buffer to send.

len of bytes to send.

void ost::SocketPort::setDetectOutput (bool)\fC [protected]\fP

Used to indicate if output ready monitoring should be performed by the service thread.

void ost::SocketPort::setDetectPending (bool)\fC [protected]\fP

Used to indicate if the service thread should monitor pending data for us.

void ost::SocketPort::setTimer (\fBtimeout_t\fPtimeout = \fC0\fP)

Derived setTimer to notify the service thread pool of change in expected timeout. This allows SocketService to reschedule all timers. Otherwise same as TimerPort.

Parameters:

timeout in milliseconds.
