Member Function Documentation

◆ appendBlock()

void yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::appendBlock ( const char *  data,
size_t  len 
)
overridevirtual

Send a block of data to the network connection.

Since communication may not happen immediately, or may happen multiple times, a copy of this data is made. If you know the block of data will remain valid, and it is a large block of data, please call ConnectionWriter::appendExternalBlock instead.

Parameters
datathe start of the data block
lenthe length of the data block

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 12 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ appendExternalBlock()

void yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::appendExternalBlock ( const char *  data,
size_t  len 
)
overridevirtual

Send a block of data to the network connection, without making a copy.

If you are not confident that the block of data will remain valid throughout transmission, call ConnectionWriter::appendBlock instead.

Parameters
datathe start of the data block
lenthe length of the data block

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 54 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ appendFloat32()

void yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::appendFloat32 ( yarp::conf::float32_t  data)
overridevirtual

Send a representation of a 32-bit floating point number to the network connection.

Parameters
datathe floating point number to send

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 38 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ appendFloat64()

void yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::appendFloat64 ( yarp::conf::float64_t  data)
overridevirtual

Send a representation of a 64-bit floating point number to the network connection.

Parameters
datathe floating point number to send

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 43 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ appendInt16()

void yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::appendInt16 ( std::int16_t  data)
overridevirtual

Send a representation of a 16-bit integer to the network connection.

Parameters
datathe integer to send

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 23 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ appendInt32()

void yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::appendInt32 ( std::int32_t  data)
overridevirtual

Send a representation of a 32-bit integer to the network connection.

Parameters
datathe integer to send

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 28 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ appendInt64()

void yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::appendInt64 ( std::int64_t  data)
overridevirtual

Send a representation of a 64-bit integer to the network connection.

Parameters
datathe integer to send

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 33 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ appendInt8()

void yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::appendInt8 ( std::int8_t  data)
overridevirtual

Send a representation of a 8-bit integer to the network connection.

Parameters
datathe integer to send

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 18 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ appendText()

void yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::appendText ( const std::string &  str,
const char  terminate = '\n' 
)
overridevirtual

Send a terminated string to the network connection.

The lenght of string is not specified in advance, therefore the reader should read until the terminating character is found.

Parameters
strthe string to send
terminatethe terminating character to use

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 48 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ convertTextMode()

bool yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::convertTextMode ( )
overridevirtual

Converts a standard description in binary into a textual description, if the connection is in text-mode.

Useful if you only operate on the binary description usually, and just want to permit text mode for command-line interaction. If isTextMode would return false, no conversion is done.

Returns
true if the conversion was possible

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 86 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ declareSizes()

void yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::declareSizes ( int  argc,
int *  argv 
)
overridevirtual

If you can easily determine how many blocks there are in a message, call this first, before anything else.

This may improve efficiency in some situations.

Parameters
argcNumber of blocks
argvAn array of integers, giving the length of each block

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 70 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ getBuffer()

yarp::os::SizedWriter * yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::getBuffer ( ) const
overridevirtual
Returns
a buffer if one is present.

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 115 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ isActive()

bool yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::isActive ( ) const
overridevirtual
Returns
true if the writer is active. Writers may become inactive if the connection they are associated with breaks.

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 96 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ isBareMode()

bool yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::isBareMode ( ) const
overridevirtual

Check if the connection is bare mode.

If it is, you are encouraged to omit type information from your serialization.

Returns
true if the connection is bare

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 65 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ isError()

bool yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::isError ( ) const
overridevirtual
Returns
true if the writer encountered an error. Writers can encounter an error if there is some data loss. For unreliable protocols like UDP/Multicast, where losses are not unexpected, this error flag will be reset for the next incoming message.

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 101 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ isNull()

bool yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::isNull ( ) const
overridevirtual
Returns
true if writer goes nowhere.

Reimplemented from yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 110 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ isTextMode()

bool yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::isTextMode ( ) const
overridevirtual

Check if the connection is text mode.

If it is, you are encouraged (but by no means required) to use a human-readable representation of your data structure.

Returns
true if the connection is text mode (as opposed to binary)

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 60 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ isValid()

bool yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::isValid ( ) const
overridevirtual
Returns
true if the writer is valid. A writer may be invalid if a connection has closed.

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 91 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ requestDrop()

void yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::requestDrop ( )
overridevirtual

Tag the connection to be dropped after the current message.

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 106 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ setReference()

void yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::setReference ( Portable obj)
overridevirtual

Stores a direct pointer to the object being sent.

This is useful for local communication, to bypass serialization.

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.

Definition at line 81 of file NullConnectionWriter.cpp.

◆ setReplyHandler()

void yarp::os::NullConnectionWriter::setReplyHandler ( PortReader reader)
overridevirtual

This sets a handler to deal with replies to the message.

The handler will be called once per connection. There will be problems for connections using carriers that don't support replies.

Parameters
readerthe object that handles replies.

Implements yarp::os::ConnectionWriter.
