Detailed Description

Abstract base class for implementing threads.

Definition at line 38 of file BaseThread.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

virtual madara::threads::BaseThread::~BaseThread ( )

inlinevirtual

Destructor.

Definition at line 44 of file BaseThread.h.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void madara::threads::BaseThread::cleanup ( void  )

inlinevirtual

Cleans up any thread residue (usually instances created in init).

It's important to note that the only things that would need to be cleaned up are generally ports opened, memory initialized with new/malloc, etc. Anything MADARA related is generally cleaned up for you.

Reimplemented in madara::threads::RCWThread, madara::transport::BroadcastTransportReadThread, madara::transport::MulticastTransportReadThread, madara::transport::SpliceReadThread, madara::transport::ZMQTransportReadThread, madara::transport::UdpRegistryServerReadThread, madara::transport::UdpTransportReadThread, madara::transport::UdpRegistryClientReadThread, madara::transport::TcpTransportReadThread, and madara::threads::JavaThread.

Definition at line 76 of file BaseThread.h.

virtual void madara::threads::BaseThread::init ( knowledge::KnowledgeBase &  )

inlinevirtual

Initializes thread with a MADARA context.

Reimplemented in madara::threads::RCWThread, madara::transport::BroadcastTransportReadThread, madara::transport::MulticastTransportReadThread, madara::transport::SpliceReadThread, madara::transport::ZMQTransportReadThread, madara::transport::UdpRegistryServerReadThread, madara::transport::UdpTransportReadThread, madara::transport::UdpRegistryClientReadThread, madara::transport::TcpTransportReadThread, and madara::threads::JavaThread.

Definition at line 59 of file BaseThread.h.

virtual void madara::threads::BaseThread::init_control_vars ( knowledge::KnowledgeBase &  control )

inlineprotectedvirtual

Initializes the Java thread implementation's control plane variables.

Parameters

control

the control plane between Threader and threads

Reimplemented in madara::threads::JavaThread.

Definition at line 86 of file BaseThread.h.

virtual void madara::threads::BaseThread::run ( void  )

pure virtual

Executes the main thread logic.

In a BaseThread, the execute is called once. Afterwards, cleanup is called.

Implemented in madara::threads::RCWThread, madara::transport::BroadcastTransportReadThread, madara::transport::MulticastTransportReadThread, madara::transport::SpliceReadThread, madara::transport::ZMQTransportReadThread, madara::transport::UdpRegistryServerReadThread, madara::transport::UdpTransportReadThread, madara::transport::UdpRegistryClientReadThread, madara::transport::TcpTransportReadThread, and madara::threads::JavaThread.
