virtual middleman &	owner ()=0
	Returns the owning middleman instance.

	Returns the enclosing actor_system.
virtual void	start (socket_manager_ptr mgr)=0
	Registers mgr for initialization in the multiplexer's thread.
virtual void	shutdown ()=0
	Signals the multiplexer to initiate shutdown.
virtual void	register_reading (socket_manager *mgr)=0
	Registers mgr for read events.
virtual void	register_writing (socket_manager *mgr)=0
	Registers mgr for write events.
virtual void	deregister_reading (socket_manager *mgr)=0
	Deregisters mgr from read events.
virtual void	deregister_writing (socket_manager *mgr)=0
	Deregisters mgr from write events.
virtual void	deregister (socket_manager *mgr)=0
	Deregisters mgr from read and write events.
virtual bool	is_reading (const socket_manager *mgr) const noexcept=0
	Queries whether mgr is currently registered for reading.
virtual bool	is_writing (const socket_manager *mgr) const noexcept=0
	Queries whether mgr is currently registered for writing.
virtual bool	poll_once (bool blocking)=0

virtual void	apply_updates ()=0
	Applies all pending updates.
virtual void	set_thread_id ()=0
	Sets the thread ID to std::this_thread::id().
virtual void	run ()=0

Public Member Functions inherited from caf::async::execution_context
virtual void	ref_execution_context () const noexcept=0
	Increases the reference count of the execution_context.
virtual void	deref_execution_context () const noexcept=0
	Decreases the reference count of the execution context and destroys the object if necessary.
virtual void	schedule (action what)=0
	Schedules what to run on the event loop of the execution context.
template<class F >
void	schedule_fn (F &&what)
	Schedules what to run on the event loop of the execution context.
virtual void	watch (disposable what)=0
	Asks the coordinator to keep its event loop running until what becomes disposed since it depends on external events or produces events that are visible to outside observers.

Static Public Member Functions
static void	block_sigpipe ()

static multiplexer *	from (actor_system &sys)
	Returns a pointer to the multiplexer from the actor system.

Detailed Description

Multiplexes any number of ::socket_manager objects with a ::socket.

Member Function Documentation

block_sigpipe()

void caf::net::multiplexer::block_sigpipe ( )

static

Blocks the PIPE signal on the current thread when running on Linux.

Has no effect otherwise.

make()

multiplexer_ptr caf::net::multiplexer::make ( middleman *  parent )

static

Creates a new multiplexer instance with the default implementation.

Parameters

parent

Points to the owning middleman instance. May be nullptr only for the purpose of unit testing if no socket_manager requires access to the middleman or the actor_system.

shutdown()

virtual void caf::net::multiplexer::shutdown ( )

pure virtual

Signals the multiplexer to initiate shutdown.

@thread-safe

start()

virtual void caf::net::multiplexer::start ( socket_manager_ptr  mgr )

pure virtual

Registers mgr for initialization in the multiplexer's thread.

@thread-safe
