Template Parameters

_TargetLinkRegistry	Link registry to be used for holding the target links.
_MessageProcessorType	Processor type for message processing.

Message blocks should derive from this block to take advantage of link management and synchronization provided by this class.

virtual message<_Target_type>* Concurrency::source_block< _TargetLinkRegistry, _MessageProcessorType >::accept ( runtime_object_identity  _MsgId, _Inout_ ITarget< _Target_type > *  _PTarget  )

inlinevirtual

Accepts a message that was offered by this source_block object, transferring ownership to the caller.

Parameters

_MsgId	The runtime_object_identity of the offered message object.
_PTarget	A pointer to the target block that is calling the accept method.

Returns

A pointer to the message object that the caller now has ownership of.

The method throws an invalid_argument exception if the parameter _PTarget is NULL.

The accept method is called by a target while a message is being offered by this ISource block. The message pointer returned may be different from the one passed into the propagate method of the ITarget block, if this source decides to make a copy of the message.

Implements Concurrency::ISource< _TargetLinkRegistry::type::type >.

virtual message<_Target_type>* Concurrency::source_block< _TargetLinkRegistry, _MessageProcessorType >::accept_message ( runtime_object_identity  _MsgId )

protectedpure virtual

When overridden in a derived class, accepts an offered message by the source. Message blocks should override this method to validate the _MsgId and return a message.

Parameters

_MsgId

The runtime object identity of the message object.

Returns

A pointer to the message that the caller now has ownership of.

To transfer ownership, the original message pointer should be returned. To maintain ownership, a copy of message payload needs to be made and returned.

Parameters

_PTarget

A pointer to the target block that is calling this method.

This method is called by an ITarget object that is being linked to this source during the link_target method.

virtual message<_Target_type>* Concurrency::source_block< _TargetLinkRegistry, _MessageProcessorType >::consume ( runtime_object_identity  _MsgId, _Inout_ ITarget< _Target_type > *  _PTarget  )

inlinevirtual

Consumes a message previously offered by this source_block object and successfully reserved by the target, transferring ownership to the caller.

Parameters

_MsgId	The runtime_object_identity of the reserved message object.
_PTarget	A pointer to the target block that is calling the consume method.

Returns

A pointer to the message object that the caller now has ownership of.

The method throws an invalid_argument exception if the parameter _PTarget is NULL.

The method throws a bad_target exception if the parameter _PTarget does not represent the target that called reserve.

The consume method is similar to accept, but must always be preceded by a call to reserve that returned true.

virtual bool Concurrency::source_block< _TargetLinkRegistry, _MessageProcessorType >::reserve ( runtime_object_identity  _MsgId, _Inout_ ITarget< _Target_type > *  _PTarget  )

inlinevirtual

Reserves a message previously offered by this source_block object.

Parameters

_MsgId	The runtime_object_identity of the offered message object.
_PTarget	A pointer to the target block that is calling the reserve method.

Returns

true if the message was successfully reserved, false otherwise. Reservations can fail for many reasons, including: the message was already reserved or accepted by another target, the source could deny reservations, and so forth.

The method throws an invalid_argument exception if the parameter _PTarget is NULL.

After you call reserve, if it succeeds, you must call either consume or release in order to take or give up possession of the message, respectively.

virtual bool Concurrency::source_block< _TargetLinkRegistry, _MessageProcessorType >::reserve_message ( runtime_object_identity  _MsgId )

protectedpure virtual

When overridden in a derived class, reserves a message previously offered by this source_block object.

Parameters

_MsgId

The runtime_object_identity of the message object being reserved.

Returns

true if the message was successfully reserved, false otherwise.

After reserve is called, if it returns true, either consume or release must be called to either take or release ownership of the message.

Parameters

Unlinks a target block from this source_block object.

Parameters

_PTarget

A pointer to an ITarget block to unlink from this source_block object.

The method throws an invalid_argument exception if the parameter _PTarget is NULL.

virtual void Concurrency::source_block< _TargetLinkRegistry, _MessageProcessorType >::unlink_target_notification ( _Inout_ ITarget< _Target_type > *  _PTarget )

A callback that notifies that a target has been unlinked from this source_block object.

Parameters

_PTarget

The ITarget block that was unlinked.

Waits for all asynchronous propagations to complete. This propagator-specific spin wait is used in destructors of message blocks to make sure that all asynchronous propagations have time to finish before destroying the block.
