Detailed Description

A port that is specialized as an RPC server.

That is, it expects to receive connections from multiple clients, and to reply to them via those connections.

Member Function Documentation

◆ asPort() [1/2]

const Port& yarp::os::RpcServer::asPort ( ) const

inlineoverridevirtual

Get the concrete Port being used for communication, const version.

Implements yarp::os::AbstractContactable.

Definition at line 64 of file RpcServer.h.

◆ asPort() [2/2]

Port& yarp::os::RpcServer::asPort ( )

inlineoverridevirtual

Get the concrete Port being used for communication.

Implements yarp::os::AbstractContactable.

Definition at line 59 of file RpcServer.h.

◆ read()

bool RpcServer::read	(	PortReader &	reader,
		bool	willReply = `true`
	)

overridevirtual

Read an object from the port.

Parameters

reader	any object that knows how to read itself from a network connection - see for example Bottle
willReply	you must set this to true if you intend to call reply()

Returns: true iff the object is successfully read

Reimplemented from yarp::os::AbstractContactable.

Definition at line 52 of file RpcServer.cpp.

◆ setInputMode()

void RpcServer::setInputMode ( bool expectInput )

overridevirtual

Configure the port to allow or forbid inputs.

By default, ports allow anything.

Parameters

expectInput set to true if this port will be used for input

Reimplemented from yarp::os::AbstractContactable.

Definition at line 62 of file RpcServer.cpp.

◆ setOutputMode()

void RpcServer::setOutputMode ( bool expectOutput )

overridevirtual

Configure the port to allow or forbid outputs.

By default, ports allow anything.

Parameters

expectOutput set to true if this port will be used for output

Reimplemented from yarp::os::AbstractContactable.

Definition at line 68 of file RpcServer.cpp.

◆ setRpcMode()

void RpcServer::setRpcMode ( bool expectRpc )

overridevirtual

Configure the port to be RPC only.

By default all ports can be used for RPC or streaming communication.

Parameters

expectRpc set to true if this port will be used for RPC only

Reimplemented from yarp::os::AbstractContactable.

Definition at line 74 of file RpcServer.cpp.

◆ write() [1/2]

bool RpcServer::write	(	const PortWriter &	writer,
		const PortWriter *	callback = `nullptr`
	)		const

overridevirtual

Write cannot be called by RPCServer.

Reimplemented from yarp::os::AbstractContactable.

Definition at line 33 of file RpcServer.cpp.

◆ write() [2/2]

bool RpcServer::write	(	const PortWriter &	writer,
		PortReader &	reader,
		const PortWriter *	callback = `nullptr`
	)		const

overridevirtual

Write cannot be called by RPCServer.

Reimplemented from yarp::os::AbstractContactable.
