Detailed Description

Functional base class for constructing SocketBase objects based on predefined arguments.

This class and its descendants are used by RemoteServer (and its descendants) to open sockets which are then connected to remote servers. This allows arbitrary combinations of remote server and socket types, since the base class of each hierarchy only ever cares about the base class of the other hierarchy.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

CODEX_Quorum::SocketBuilder::SocketBuilder (  int  domain = PF_INET, int  type = SOCK_STREAM, int  protocol = 0, bool  blocking = false )  [inline]

Constructor for a SocketBuilder. The arguments of the constructor are those arguments needed to create a corresponding socket object. Parameters: domain  Protocol family. Defaults to PF_INET. type  Socket type. Defaults to SOCK_STREAM (TCP). protocol  Specific protocol. Defaults to 0, which is usually the only available value. blocking  Should the socket be able to block? See also: SocketBase::SocketBase Definition at line 53 of file SocketBuilder.h. References m_blocking, m_domain, m_protocol, and m_type.

Member Function Documentation

SocketBase * SocketBuilder::operator() (   )  const [virtual]

Create a new SocketBase. SocketBuilder is initialized with everything it needs to create a new socket. Binding to a specific port and address is not included, so a single SocketBuilder can be used to create all of the needed sockets of a given type. Reimplemented in CODEX_Quorum::LoopbackSocketBuilder, and CODEX_SSL::SSLSocketBuilder. Definition at line 24 of file SocketBuilder.cc. References m_blocking, m_domain, m_protocol, and m_type.
