Member Function Documentation

virtual void VOS::Vobject::addChildListener (  ChildChangeListener *  cl, bool  notifyImmediately = true )  [pure virtual]

Adds some object callback to be notified when the child list changes. The child listener will immediately be issued a notifyChildInserted() for each child. Parameters: cl  The listener object. If this object is also a RefCounted object, reference counting will be done correctly. notifyImmediately  if true, notify listener immediately (before returning). otherwise defer until a future update Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::MetaObject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, VOS::RemoteVobject, and VOS::VobjectImplementation.

virtual void VOS::Vobject::addFlag (  const string &  flag  )  [pure virtual]

Add a flag string. Mainly useful for doing tree walks, when you want to mark an object as already having been touched. Parameters: flag  the flag string Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, and VOS::VobjectImplementation.

virtual void VOS::Vobject::addParentListener (  ParentChangeListener *  pl, bool  notifyImmediately = true )  [pure virtual]

Adds some object callback to be notified when the parent set changes. Parameters: pl  the listener object notifyImmediately if true, notify listener immediately (before returning). otherwise defer until a future update If this object is also a RefCounted object, reference counting will be done correctly. Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::MetaObject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, VOS::RemoteVobject, and VOS::VobjectImplementation.

virtual void VOS::Vobject::addType (  const string &  s  )  [pure virtual]

Adds a new type to this object's type set. This only changes the stored set of type name strings and does not necessarily affect the actual code behind the object. See the Local Site class for information about extending the actual functionality of an existing meta objects. Parameters: s  the type string Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::LocalVobject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, and VOS::RemoteVobject.

virtual void VOS::Vobject::addTypeListener (  TypeChangeListener *  tl, bool  notifyImmediately = true )  [pure virtual]

Adds some object callback to be notified when the type set changes. Parameters: tl  the listener object. notifyImmediately  if true, notify listener immediately (before returning). otherwise defer until a future update If this object is also a RefCounted object, reference counting will be done correctly. Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::MetaObject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, VOS::RemoteVobject, and VOS::VobjectImplementation.

virtual bool VOS::Vobject::checkFlag (  const string &  flag  )  [pure virtual]

Check the flag string. Parameters: flag  the flag string Returns: whether the flag string is set Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, and VOS::VobjectImplementation.

virtual Vobject::ParentChildRelation& VOS::Vobject::findChild (  const string &  path  )  throw (NoSuchObjectError, AccessControlError, RemoteError) [pure virtual]

Find a child. This searchs for a single parent-child relation in the immediate child list of this object. It is distinguished from findObject in that it returns the full parent-child relation structure, and that it only accepts two forms of input: the child name, or the #position. See setChild() for more information about the possible numerical values of positions. Parameters: path  either the child name or #position Returns: the ParentChildRelation structure representing the relation of this parent and the requested child. NOTE YOU MUST CALL release() WHEN DONE OR USE A rREF() BLOCK Exceptions: NoSuchObjectError  if the path is illegal AccessControlError  if the site reported the user is not allowed that information Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, VOS::RemoteVobject, and VOS::VobjectImplementation.

virtual Vobject& VOS::Vobject::findObject (  const string &  path  )  throw (NoSuchSiteError, NoSuchObjectError, URL::BadURLError, AccessControlError, RemoteError) [pure virtual]

Searchs and returns some object similarly to findObjectFromRoot(). However, if the path does not start with the string "vop://" the path will be intepreted as relative to this object. For example, "foo/bar" will find the first child object named "foo" of this object, then the first child named "bar" of the "foo" object and return it. If there is a leading slash, the path is relative to the object's site, so "/foo/bar" does not necessarily mean the same thing. Note that there should never be a slash at the end, so "foo/" is NOT a legal path. Finally, instead of using child names, one may use "\#position", starting from zero. So "\#0" refers to the first child of this object, "\#1" to the second etc. Obviously if the number in #position is larger than the number of children, an exception will be raised. See setChild() for more information about the possible numerical values of positions. Parameters: path  the path to the object we want to find Returns: the object, if found. NOTE YOU MUST CALL release() WHEN DONE OR USE A rREF() BLOCK Exceptions: NoSuchSiteError  The DNS lookup for the site failed, the site is not listening on the expected port, or the site otherwise could not be connected to (only thrown if there is a site specified in the path.) NoSuchObjectError  if that object path does not exist on the site URL::BadURLError  if there is a syntax error in the supplied URL AccessControlError  if the site reported that the user is not allowed that information Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, VOS::RemoteVobject, and VOS::VobjectImplementation. Referenced by VOS::VobjectImplementation::findObject().

Vobject & Vobject::findObjectFromRoot (  const string &  path  )  throw (NoSuchSiteError, NoSuchObjectError, URL::BadURLError, AccessControlError, RemoteError) [static]

Searchs and returns some object, given a rooted path (that is, in the form "vop://site:port/child1/child2/etc"). See findObject() for more information about paths. Parameters: path  the path to the object we want to find Returns: the object, if found. NOTE YOU MUST CALL release() WHEN DONE OR USE A rREF() BLOCK Exceptions: NoSuchSiteError  The DNS lookup for the site failed, the site is listening on the expected port, or the site otherwise could not be connected to NoSuchObjectError  if that object path does not exist on the site URL::BadURLError  if there is a syntax error in the supplied URL AccessControlError  if the site reported that the user is not allowed that information Definition at line 124 of file vobject.cc. Referenced by VOS::RemoteSite::createMetaObject().

virtual Vobject::ParentChildRelation& VOS::Vobject::findParent (  Vobject &  parent  )  throw (NoSuchObjectError, AccessControlError, RemoteError) [pure virtual]

Find a parent. This tests to see if the supplied Vobject is marked as a parent of this Vobject. Parameters: parent  the parent object Returns: the parent-child relation. NOTE YOU MUST CALL release() WHEN DONE OR USE A rREF() BLOCK Exceptions: NoSuchObjectError  if the object is NOT a parent AccessControlError  if the site reported the user is not allowed that information Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::MetaObject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, and VOS::VobjectImplementation.

virtual const ChildList& VOS::Vobject::getChildren (   )  throw (AccessControlError, RemoteError) [pure virtual]

Get the set of parent-child relationships in which this object is the parent. Returns: a set of parent-child relations Warning: You should always assign the results of getChildren to a variable. Do NOT do this: for(Vobject::ChildList::const_iterator i = v->getChildren().begin(); i != v->getChildren().end(); i++) { ... } Instead, you should do this: const ChildList& cl = v->getChildren(); for(Vobject::ChildList::const_iterator i = cl.begin(); i != cl.end(); i++) { ... } The reason for this is that if vobj is remote, each call to getChildren() may trigger a remote call. In addition to being inefficient, this will wipe and replace the child list you are in the midst of using, which will probably invalidate the iterator and cause your program to crash. Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::MetaObject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, VOS::RemoteVobject, and VOS::VobjectImplementation. Referenced by VOS::RemoteSite::unlockChildNotifyOutgoing().

virtual const string& VOS::Vobject::getName (   )  [pure virtual]

Referenced by VOS::RemoteSite::unlockParentNotifyOutgoing().

virtual Site& VOS::Vobject::getSite (   )  [pure virtual]

virtual void VOS::Vobject::insertChild (  int  position, const string &  contextual_name, Vobject *  child )  throw (AccessControlError, RemoteError) [pure virtual]

Insert a child at some position with a new object. If the position is positive, the object is inserted such that it now occupies that position, and all objects starting from the previous occupant of that position onward are moved up one. If the position in negative, the object is similarly inserted so that it now occupies that position. For example, position -1 will append the object to the end of the list, position -2 will insert the object in the second-to-last position, etc. See setChild() for more information on positions.

virtual void VOS::Vobject::removeParentListener (  ParentChangeListener *  pl  )  [pure virtual]

Removes an existing object callback, previously added with addParentListener(). Parameters: pl  the listener object If this object is also a RefCounted object, reference counting will be done correctly. Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::MetaObject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, VOS::RemoteVobject, and VOS::VobjectImplementation.

virtual void VOS::Vobject::saveState (  MessageBlock &  output, set< string > &  types, bool  portable )  [pure virtual]

Create a message block which, when run, will recreate any non-VOS state related to this vobject (such as property values). In other words, it should not emit anything related to parent-child relationships, but is rather is a hook for other arbitrary state information, encoded as messages. Note: Save-state routines ought to work for saving remote objects as well, based on available state. Also, only the method and the message fields themselves should be used. "To", "from", "nonce" and others will be ignored. Parameters: output  messages should be appended to this message block types  the type set that should be output for this vobject portable  If true, generate a "portable" state. This means that all the data required to restore state should be embedded in the message. If false, fully recreating the state may rely on external resources such as files or databases. Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, and VOS::VobjectImplementation.

virtual void VOS::Vobject::sendMessage (  MessageBlock *  m  )  [pure virtual]

Sends a block of messages to the object. This may trigger immediate processing of the message if the object is local. Parameters: m  A pointer to the message which is being sent.

virtual void VOS::Vobject::sendMessage (  Message *  m  )  [pure virtual]

Sends a message to the object. This may trigger immediate processing of the message if the object is local. Parameters: m  A pointer to the message which is being sent. Its reference count will be increased as necssary. Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::LocalSite, VOS::LocalSocketSite, VOS::LocalVobject, VOS::MetaObject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, VOS::RemoteSite, VOS::RemoteSocketSite, VOS::RemoteStreamSite, VOS::RemoteVobject, and VOS::Site.

virtual void VOS::Vobject::sendUpdateMessage (  Message *  m  )  [pure virtual]

Gets the next message the update object has received. Update messages are special in that they consist of messages sent from remote sites to update changes to our local cache. Parameters: m  A pointer to the message which is being sent. Its reference count will be increased as necssary. Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::MetaObject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, VOS::RemoteSite, VOS::RemoteVobject, and VOS::VobjectImplementation.

virtual void VOS::Vobject::setChild (  int  position, const string &  contextual_name, Vobject *  child )  throw (AccessControlError, RemoteError) [pure virtual]

Replace a child at some position with a new object. Note: On positions: if a position is zero or positive, its meaning is as you would expect, expressing the offset into an array of children. However, if the position is negative, it expresses the offset from the end of the list. This means for a list of length n, -1 is the last item in the list (equal to position position n - 1) and -n is the first item (equal to positive position 0). This position notation is used in setChild() findObject(), findObjectFromRoot(), insertChild(), and removeChild(); it should also be available with any methods who make use of the previously-mentioned methods. Parameters: position  the position contextual_name  This is the name, specific to this parent-child relation, used for refering to this object by path. child  the child object, in question Exceptions: AccessControl  if this object (when it is remote) doesn't approve of this action. Implemented in VOS::LocalMetaObject, VOS::LocalSite, VOS::LocalVobject, VOS::RemoteMetaObject, VOS::RemoteSite, and VOS::RemoteVobject.
