template<class T>

RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::BufferLocked	(	size_type	size,
		const T &	initial_value = `T()`,
		bool	circular = `false`
	)

inline

Create a buffer of size size, with preallocated data storage.

Parameters

size	The number of elements this buffer can hold.
initial_value	A data sample with which each preallocated data element is initialized.
circular	Set flag to true to make this buffer circular. If not circular, new values are discarded on full.

Member Function Documentation

template<class T>

size_type RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::capacity ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Returns the maximum number of items that can be stored in the buffer.

Returns: maximum number of items.

Implements RTT::base::BufferBase.

Definition at line 196 of file BufferLocked.hpp.

template<class T>

void RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::clear ( )

inlinevirtual

Clears all contents of this buffer.

Implements RTT::base::BufferBase.

Definition at line 206 of file BufferLocked.hpp.

template<class T>

virtual void RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::data_sample ( const T & sample )

inlinevirtual

Initializes this buffer with a data sample, such that for dynamical allocated types T, the buffer can reserve place to hold these elements.

Postcondition: Calling this function causes all data in the buffer to be lost and the size being reset to zero.

Implements RTT::base::BufferInterface< T >.

Definition at line 83 of file BufferLocked.hpp.

template<class T>

virtual T RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::data_sample ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Reads back a data sample.

Implements RTT::base::BufferInterface< T >.

Definition at line 90 of file BufferLocked.hpp.

template<class T>

size_type RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::dropped ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Returns the number of dropped samples, because the buffer was full.

Implements RTT::base::BufferBase.

Definition at line 221 of file BufferLocked.hpp.

template<class T>

bool RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::empty ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Check if this buffer is empty.

Returns: true if size() == 0

Implements RTT::base::BufferBase.

Definition at line 211 of file BufferLocked.hpp.

template<class T>

bool RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::full ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Check if this buffer is full.

Returns: true if size() == capacity()

Implements RTT::base::BufferBase.

Definition at line 216 of file BufferLocked.hpp.

template<class T>

bool RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::Pop ( reference_t item )

inlinevirtual

Read the oldest value from the buffer.

Parameters

item	is to be set with a value from the buffer.

Returns: true if something was read.

Implements RTT::base::BufferInterface< T >.

Definition at line 151 of file BufferLocked.hpp.

template<class T>

size_type RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::Pop ( std::vector< T > & items )

inlinevirtual

Read the whole buffer.

Parameters

items is to be filled with all values in the buffer, with items.begin() the oldest value.

Returns: the number of items read.

Implements RTT::base::BufferInterface< T >.

Definition at line 162 of file BufferLocked.hpp.

template<class T>

value_t* RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::PopWithoutRelease ( )

inlinevirtual

Returns a pointer to the first element in the buffer.

The pointer is only garanteed to stay valid until the next pop operation.

Note the pointer needs the be released by calling Release on the buffer.

Returns: a pointer to a sample or Zero if buffer is empty

Implements RTT::base::BufferInterface< T >.

Definition at line 175 of file BufferLocked.hpp.

template<class T>

bool RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::Push ( param_t item )

inlinevirtual

Write a single value to the buffer.

Parameters

item	the value to write

Returns: false if the buffer is full.

Implements RTT::base::BufferInterface< T >.

Definition at line 100 of file BufferLocked.hpp.

template<class T>

size_type RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::Push ( const std::vector< T > & items )

inlinevirtual

Write a sequence of values to the buffer.

Parameters

items the values to write

Returns: the number of values written (may be less than items.size())

Implements RTT::base::BufferInterface< T >.

Definition at line 117 of file BufferLocked.hpp.

template<class T>

void RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::Release ( value_t * item )

inlinevirtual

Releases the pointer.

Parameters

item	pointer aquired using PopWithoutRelease()

Implements RTT::base::BufferInterface< T >.

Definition at line 189 of file BufferLocked.hpp.

template<class T>

size_type RTT::base::BufferLocked< T >::size ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Returns the actual number of items that are stored in the buffer.

Returns: number of items.
