Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class dds::sub::LoanedSamples< T >

This class encapsulates and automates the management of loaned samples.

It is a container which is used to hold samples which have been read or taken by the DataReader. Samples are effectively "loaned" from the DataReader to avoid the need to copy the data. When the LoanedSamples container goes out of scope the loan is automatically returned.

LoanedSamples maintains a ref count so that the loan will only be returned once all copies of the same LoanedSamples have been destroyed.

dds::domain::DomainParticipant participant(org::opensplice::domain::default_id());
dds::topic::Topic<Foo::Bar> topic(participant, "TopicName");
dds::sub::Subscriber subscriber(participant);
dds::sub::DataReader<Foo::Bar> reader(subscriber, topic);

// Assume there is data to read
{
    dds::sub::LoanedSamples<Foo::Bar> samples = reader.read();
    dds::sub::LoanedSamples<Foo::Bar>::const_iterator it;
    for (it = samples.begin(); it != samples.end(); ++it) {
        const dds::sub::Sample<Foo::Bar>& sample = *it;
        const Foo::Bar& data = sample.data();
        const dds::sub::SampleInfo& info = sample.info();
        // Use sample data and meta information.
    }

    function(samples);
}
// LoanedSamples out of scope. Whether the loan is returned, depends what the reference
// count of the LoanedSamples is. That again, depends on what the function() did with it.
// Maybe function() stored the LoanedSamples, maybe not. Whatever the case, LoanedSamples
// takes care of the loan and resource handling.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

LoanedSamples() [1/2]

template<typename T >

dds::sub::LoanedSamples< T >::LoanedSamples

(

)

Constructs a LoanedSamples instance.

Definition at line 40 of file LoanedSamplesImpl.hpp.

~LoanedSamples()

template<typename T >

dds::sub::LoanedSamples< T >::~LoanedSamples

(

)

Implicitly return the loan if this is the last object with a reference to the contained loan.

Definition at line 43 of file LoanedSamplesImpl.hpp.

LoanedSamples() [2/2]

template<typename T >

dds::sub::LoanedSamples< T >::LoanedSamples

No actual data samples are copied.
Just references and reference counts are updated.
