Detailed Description

An abstract base class for Transport Property.

This class provides an abstract interface and holds minimal info on which the Transport Caching scheme is based on. Concrete connection properties can be got by inheriting from this class and implementing the virtual functions. Note 1: Additional properties for connection like Qos, Priority that the RT folks would need, can be added by inheriting from this class and providing the following methods. 1. duplicate () 2. is_equivalent () 3. hash ()

Member Function Documentation

virtual TAO_Transport_Descriptor_Interface* TAO_Transport_Descriptor_Interface::duplicate

(

void

)

[pure virtual]

This call allocates and copies the contents of this class and returns the pointer

Implemented in TAO_Base_Transport_Property.

TAO_Endpoint * TAO_Transport_Descriptor_Interface::endpoint

(

void

)

Return the underlying endpoint object.

virtual u_long TAO_Transport_Descriptor_Interface::hash

(

void

)

const [pure virtual]

Generate hash value for our class.

Implemented in TAO_Base_Transport_Property.

virtual CORBA::Boolean TAO_Transport_Descriptor_Interface::is_equivalent

(

const TAO_Transport_Descriptor_Interface *

other_prop

)

[pure virtual]

Try to determine if this object is same as the other_prop.

Implemented in TAO_Base_Transport_Property.

CORBA::Boolean TAO_Transport_Descriptor_Interface::reset_endpoint

(

TAO_Endpoint *

ep

)

Reset the endpoint pointer to point to another, if that one is part of the chain based by the current endpoint. Although this method is public it should only be used by the protocol specific connector, right before caching, and only when a parallel connect was attempted with more than one possible endpoints.

void TAO_Transport_Descriptor_Interface::set_bidir_flag

(

CORBA::Boolean

flag

)

Set the BiDir flag.

Member Data Documentation

CORBA::Boolean TAO_Transport_Descriptor_Interface::bidir_flag_ [protected]

Should the endpoint be used in either direction?

TAO_Endpoint* TAO_Transport_Descriptor_Interface::endpoint_ [protected]

The base property of the connection ie. the peer's endpoint.

CORBA::Boolean TAO_Transport_Descriptor_Interface::release_ [protected]

Is the endpoint allocated on the heap? If so, we will have to delete it when we destruct ourselves.
