Function Documentation

◆ uno_bindIdToCurrentThread()

CPPU_DLLPUBLIC sal_Bool uno_bindIdToCurrentThread ( sal_Sequence pThreadId)

Establishes an association between the current thread and the given thread identifier.

There can be only one association at a time. The association must be broken by uno_releaseIdFromCurrentThread(). This method is in general called by a bridge, that wants to bind a remote threadId to a new thread.

Parameters
pThreadIda byte sequence, that contains the identifier of the current thread.
Returns
true, when the identifier was registered. false, when the thread has already an identifier. The identifier was not altered. ( This is in general a bug ).
See also
uno_releaseIdFromCurrentThread()

◆ uno_getIdOfCurrentThread()

CPPU_DLLPUBLIC void uno_getIdOfCurrentThread ( sal_Sequence **  ppThreadId)

Get the identifier of the current thread.

If no id has been bound for the thread before, a new one is generated and bound to the thread. For each call to uno_getIdOfCurrentThread(), a call to uno_releaseIdFromCurrentThread() must be done.

Parameters
ppThreadId[out] Contains the (acquired) ThreadId.
See also
uno_releaseIdFromCurrentThread()

◆ uno_releaseIdFromCurrentThread()

CPPU_DLLPUBLIC void uno_releaseIdFromCurrentThread ( )

If the internal refcount drops to zero, the association between threadId and thread is broken.

◆ uno_threadpool_attach()

CPPU_DLLPUBLIC void uno_threadpool_attach ( uno_ThreadPool  hPool)

Makes the current thread known to the threadpool.

This function must be called, BEFORE uno_threadpool_enter() is called and BEFORE a job for this thread is put into the threadpool (avoid a race between this thread and an incoming request/reply). For every call to uno_threadpool_attach, a corresponding call to uno_threadpool_detach must be done.

Parameters
hPoolThe bridge threadpool handle previously created by uno_threadpool_create.

◆ uno_threadpool_create()

CPPU_DLLPUBLIC uno_ThreadPool uno_threadpool_create ( )

Creates a threadpool handle.

Typically each remote bridge instances creates one handle.

◆ uno_threadpool_destroy()

CPPU_DLLPUBLIC void uno_threadpool_destroy ( uno_ThreadPool  hPool)

Releases the previously with uno_threadpool_create() created handle.

The handle thus becomes invalid. It is an error to use the handle after uno_threadpool_destroy().

A call to uno_threadpool_destroy can synchronously join on spawned worker threads, so this function must never be called from such a worker thread.

See also
uno_threadpool_create()

◆ uno_threadpool_detach()

CPPU_DLLPUBLIC void uno_threadpool_detach ( uno_ThreadPool  hPool)

Detaches the current thread from the threadpool.

Must be called for every call to uno_threadpool_attach.

Parameters
hPoolthe handle that was previously created by uno_threadpool_create().

◆ uno_threadpool_dispose()

CPPU_DLLPUBLIC void uno_threadpool_dispose ( uno_ThreadPool  hPool)

All threads, that are waiting on the hPool handle, are forced out of the pool.

The threads waiting with uno_threadpool_enter() will return with *ppJob == 0

Later calls to uno_threadpool_enter() using the hPool handle will also return immediately with *ppJob == 0.

Parameters
hPoolThe handle to be disposed.

This function is called i.e. by a bridge, that is forced to dispose itself.

◆ uno_threadpool_enter()

CPPU_DLLPUBLIC void uno_threadpool_enter ( uno_ThreadPool  hPool,
void **  ppJob 
)

This method is called to wait for a reply of a previously sent request.

This is a blocking method. uno_threadpool_attach() must have been called before.

Parameters
hPoolthe handle that was previously created by uno_threadpool_create().
ppJob[out] the pointer, that was given by uno_threadpool_putJob 0, when uno_threadpool_dispose() was the reason to fall off from threadpool.
See also
uno_threadpool_dispose()

◆ uno_threadpool_putJob()

CPPU_DLLPUBLIC void uno_threadpool_putJob ( uno_ThreadPool  hPool,
sal_Sequence pThreadId,
void *  pJob,
void(*)(void *pThreadSpecificData)  doRequest,
sal_Bool  bIsOneway 
)

Puts a job into the pool.

A job may either be a request or a reply (replies have a 0 in the doRequest parameter). This function is non-blocking.

A request may either be synchronous or asynchronous. If the request is synchronous, it is first looked up, if there exists a handle with the given identifier. If this is the case, the thread is woken up and the doRequest function is called with the given pJob. If no handle exists, a new thread is created and the given threadId is bound to the new thread.

If the request is asynchronous, it is put into the queue of asynchronous requests for the current threadid. The requests are always executed in a new thread, even if the thread with the given id is waiting in the pool. No id is bound to the newly created thread. The responsibility is left to the bridge (if it wishes to bind a name).

If pJob is a reply, there MUST be a thread with the given threadId waiting for this reply.

Parameters
hPoolthe handle that was previously created by uno_threadpool_create().
pThreadIdThe Id of the thread, that initialized this request. (In general a remote threadid).
pJobThe argument, that doRequest will get or that will be returned by uno_threadpool_enter().
doRequestThe function, that shall be called to execute the request. 0 if pJob is a reply.
bIsOnewayTrue, if the request is asynchronous. False, if it is synchronous. Set to sal_False, if pJob is a reply.
