SoDisp Struct Reference

Detailed Description

The SoDisp dispatches any socket connection that contains data by calling the SoDispCon::execute member function in a SoDispCon object.

This class contains the socket dispatcher loop which waits for data on all registered socket connections. A socket connection is stored in a SoDispCon object, and the dispatcher object dispatches the socket connection by calling SoDispCon::execute.

The SoDisp class is platform dependent and may be implemented differently for various operating systems. The "generic SoDisp" is using "socket select" and waits in a loop for the next active socket connection.

◆ SoDisp()

SoDisp::SoDisp ( ThreadMutex mutex)

The constructor.

Parameters
mutexis protecting the web-server code.

Member Function Documentation

◆ mutexRelease()

void SoDisp::mutexRelease ( )

Releases the mutex if this is the last 'pop'.

Releases the mutex set with function SoDisp::mutexSet.

◆ mutexSet()

void SoDisp::mutexSet ( )

Lock the dispatcher thread.

This function protects the web-server with a mutex and makes it possible for threads to call functions in the web-server. One mutexSet call must be followed by one HttpServer::mutexRelease call.

◆ run()

void SoDisp::run ( S32  timeout = -1)

Call the socket dispatcher loop, which dispatches HTTP requests.

The default argument for C++ is to set timeout=-1, which makes the function block, i.e. never return. C code must always provide an argument, which is normally -1. The function can be used with a polled-based system by setting the timeout value.

for(;;)
{
printf("Execute SoDisp::run\n");
dispatcher->run(1100); //Set poll frequency to 1.1 second.
}

This method is used with the generic dispatcher.
