typedef GMainContext Glib::MainContext::BaseObjectType |
bool Glib::MainContext::acquire | ( | ) |
Tries to become the owner of the specified context.
If some other context is the owner of the context, returns FALSE immediately. Ownership is properly recursive: the owner can require ownership again and will release ownership when release() is called as many times as acquire(). You must be the owner of a context before you can call prepare(), query(), check(), dispatch().
void Glib::MainContext::add_poll | ( | PollFD& | fd, | |
int | priority | |||
) |
Adds a file descriptor to the set of file descriptors polled for this context.
This will very seldomly be used directly. Instead a typical event source will use Glib::Source::add_poll() instead.
fd | A PollFD structure holding information about a file descriptor to watch. | |
priority | The priority for this file descriptor which should be the same as the priority used for Glib::Source::attach() to ensure that the file descriptor is polled whenever the results may be needed. |
bool Glib::MainContext::check | ( | int | max_priority, | |
std::vector< PollFD >& | fds | |||
) |
Passes the results of polling back to the main loop.
max_priority | Maximum numerical priority of sources to check. | |
fds | Vector of Glib::PollFD's that was passed to the last call to query() |
static Glib::RefPtr<MainContext> Glib::MainContext::create | ( | ) | [static] |
Creates a new MainContext.
void Glib::MainContext::dispatch | ( | ) |
Dispatches all pending sources.
static Glib::RefPtr<MainContext> Glib::MainContext::get_default | ( | ) | [static] |
Returns the default main context.
This is the main context used for main loop functions when a main loop is not explicitly specified.
GPollFunc Glib::MainContext::get_poll_func | ( | ) |
Gets the poll function set by g_main_context_set_poll_func().
const GMainContext* Glib::MainContext::gobj | ( | ) | const |
GMainContext* Glib::MainContext::gobj | ( | ) |
GMainContext* Glib::MainContext::gobj_copy | ( | ) | const |
bool Glib::MainContext::iteration | ( | bool | may_block | ) |
Runs a single iteration for the given main loop.
This involves checking to see if any event sources are ready to be processed, then if no events sources are ready and may_block is true, waiting for a source to become ready, then dispatching the highest priority events sources that are ready. Note that even when may_block is true, it is still possible for iteration() to return false, since the the wait may be interrupted for other reasons than an event source becoming ready.
may_block | Whether the call may block. |
bool Glib::MainContext::pending | ( | ) |
Checks if any sources have pending events for the given context.
bool Glib::MainContext::prepare | ( | ) |
Prepares to poll sources within a main loop.
The resulting information for polling is determined by calling query().
bool Glib::MainContext::prepare | ( | int & | priority | ) |
Prepares to poll sources within a main loop.
The resulting information for polling is determined by calling query().
priority | Location to store priority of highest priority source already ready. |
void Glib::MainContext::query | ( | int | max_priority, | |
int & | timeout, | |||
std::vector< PollFD >& | fds | |||
) |
Determines information necessary to poll this main loop.
max_priority | Maximum priority source to check. | |
timeout | Location to store timeout to be used in polling. | |
fds | Location to store Glib::PollFD records that need to be polled. |
void Glib::MainContext::reference | ( | ) | const |
void Glib::MainContext::release | ( | ) |
void Glib::MainContext::remove_poll | ( | PollFD& | fd | ) |
Removes file descriptor from the set of file descriptors to be polled for a particular context.
fd | A PollFD structure holding information about a file descriptor. |
void Glib::MainContext::set_poll_func | ( | GPollFunc | poll_func | ) |
Sets the function to use to handle polling of file descriptors.
It will be used instead of the poll() system call (or GLib's replacement function, which is used where poll() isn't available). This function could possibly be used to integrate the GLib event loop with an external event loop.
poll_func | The function to call to poll all file descriptors. |
SignalChildWatch Glib::MainContext::signal_child_watch | ( | ) |
child watch signal, attached to this MainContext.
SignalIdle Glib::MainContext::signal_idle | ( | ) |
Idle signal, attached to this MainContext.
SignalIO Glib::MainContext::signal_io | ( | ) |
I/O signal, attached to this MainContext.
SignalTimeout Glib::MainContext::signal_timeout | ( | ) |
Timeout signal, attached to this MainContext.
void Glib::MainContext::unreference | ( | ) | const |
bool Glib::MainContext::wait | ( | Glib::Cond& | cond, | |
Glib::Mutex& | mutex | |||
) |
Tries to become the owner of the specified context, as with acquire().
But if another thread is the owner, atomically drop mutex and wait on cond until that owner releases ownership or until cond is signaled, then try again (once) to become the owner.
cond | A condition variable. | |
mutex | A mutex, currently held. |
void Glib::MainContext::wakeup | ( | ) |
If context is currently waiting in a poll(), interrupt the poll(), and continue the iteration process.
