Public Functions

virtual IEvent *createEventPtr(
EventType eventType,
SenderId sender,
) = 0#

Create new event of certain type.

Parameters:
Returns:

A pointer to a newly created event.

template<typename ...ValuesT>
inline ObjectPtr<IEvent> createEvent(
EventType eventType,
SenderId sender,
ValuesT&&... values,
)#

Create new event of certain type.

Parameters:
Returns:

A pointer to a newly created event.

virtual void dispatch(IEvent *e) = 0#

Dispatch event immediately without putting it into stream.

Parameters:

e – The event to dispatch.

virtual void push(IEvent *e) = 0#

Push event into the stream.

Parameters:

e – The event to push.

virtual void pushBlocked(IEvent *e) = 0#

Push event into the stream and block until it is dispatched by some other thread.

Parameters:

e – The event to push.

virtual size_t getCount() = 0#

Get approximate number of events waiting for dispatch in the stream.

Thread Safety

While safe to call from multiple threads, since there is no lock involved this value should be considered approximate as another thread could modify the number before the return value is read. This call is strongly ordered with respect to other calls.

Returns:

The approximate number of events waiting for dispatch in the stream.

inline ObjectPtr<IEvent> pop()#

Pop and dispatches a single event from the stream, blocking until one becomes available.

Warning

This function blocks until an event is available.

Returns:

The event that was popped and dispatched.

virtual IEvent *popPtr() = 0#

Pop and dispatches a single event from the stream, blocking until one becomes available.

Warning

This function blocks until an event is available.

Returns:

The event that was popped and dispatched.

inline ObjectPtr<IEvent> tryPop()#

Pops and dispatches a single event from the stream, if available.

Note

Unlike pop(), this function does not wait for an event to become available.

Returns:

The event that was popped and dispatched, or nullptr if no event was available.

virtual IEvent *tryPopPtr() = 0#

Pops and dispatches a single event from the stream, if available.

Note

Unlike pop(), this function does not wait for an event to become available.

Returns:

The event that was popped and dispatched, or nullptr if no event was available.

inline void pump()#

Dispatches and pops all available events from the stream.

inline ObjectPtr<ISubscription> createSubscriptionToPop(
IEventListener *listener,
Order order,
const char *subscriptionName = nullptr,
)#

Subscribe to receive notification when event stream is popped.

See also

pump() pop() tryPop()

Note

Adding or removing a subscription from IEventListener::onEvent() is perfectly valid. The newly added subscription will not be called until the next event.

Warning

Recursively pushing and/or popping events from within IEventListener::onEvent() is not recommended and can lead to undefined behavior.

Parameters:

  • listener – The listener to subscribe. IEventListener::onEvent() will be called for each popped event. If an event listener calls IEvent::consume() on the given event, propagation of the event will stop and no more event listeners will receive the event.

  • order – An optional value used to specify the order tier. Lower order tiers will be notified first. Multiple IEventListener objects at the same order are notified in the order in which they subscribed.

  • subscriptionName – An optional name for the subscription for debugging purposes. Names do not need to be unique. If nullptr, an internal name will be determined.

Returns:

A ISubscription pointer. The subscription is valid as long as the ISubscription pointer is referenced. Alternately, the IEventListener can be unsubscribed by calling ISubscription::unsubscribe().

inline ObjectPtr<ISubscription> createSubscriptionToPopByType(
EventType eventType,
IEventListener *listener,
Order order,
const char *subscriptionName = nullptr,
)#

Subscribe to receive notification when event stream is popped.

  • eventType – A specific event to listen for.

Returns:

A ISubscription pointer. The subscription is valid as long as the ISubscription pointer is referenced. Alternately, the IEventListener can be unsubscribed by calling ISubscription::unsubscribe().
