SelectSelector

Selector that uses the select() system call to receive I/O events for the registered conduits. To use this class you would normally do something like this:

class SelectSelector : AbstractSelector {

alias select = AbstractSelector.select;

uint _size;

int _eventCount;

version(Posix)

enum uint DefaultSize;

version(!Posix)

enum uint DefaultSize;

void open(uint size, uint maxEvents);

void close();

void register(ISelectable conduit, Event events, Object attachment);

void unregister(ISelectable conduit);

int select(TimeSpan timeout);

ISelectionSet selectedSet();

SelectionKey key(ISelectable conduit);

size_t count();

int opApply(int delegate(ref SelectionKey) dg);

}

select alias select = AbstractSelector.select: Alias for the select() method as we're not reimplementing it in this class.

Functions

close void close(): Close the selector.
count size_t count(): Return the number of keys resulting from the registration of a conduit to the selector.
key SelectionKey key(ISelectable conduit): Return the selection key resulting from the registration of a conduit to the selector.
opApply int opApply(int delegate(ref SelectionKey) dg): Iterate through the currently registered selection keys. Note that you should not erase or add any items from the selector while iterating, although you can register existing conduits again.
open void open(uint size, uint maxEvents): Open the select()-based selector.
register void register(ISelectable conduit, Event events, Object attachment): Associate a conduit to the selector and track specific I/O events. If a conduit is already associated with the selector, the events and attachment are upated.
select int select(TimeSpan timeout): Wait for I/O events from the registered conduits for a specified amount of time.
selectedSet ISelectionSet selectedSet(): Return the selection set resulting from the call to any of the select() methods.
unregister void unregister(ISelectable conduit): Remove a conduit from the selector.

Variables

DefaultSize enum uint DefaultSize;: Default number of SelectionKey's that will be handled by the SelectSelector.
DefaultSize enum uint DefaultSize;: Default number of SelectionKey's that will be handled by the SelectSelector.
_eventCount int _eventCount;: Undocumented in source.
_size uint _size;: Undocumented in source.

_restartInterruptedSystemCall bool _restartInterruptedSystemCall;: Restart interrupted system calls when blocking inside a call to select.
restartInterruptedSystemCall bool restartInterruptedSystemCall(): Indicates whether interrupted system calls will be restarted when blocking inside a call to select.
restartInterruptedSystemCall void restartInterruptedSystemCall(bool value): Sets whether interrupted system calls will be restarted when blocking inside a call to select.
open void open(uint size, uint maxEvents): Initialize the selector.
close void close(): Free any operating system resources that may have been allocated in the call to open().
register void register(ISelectable conduit, Event events, Object attachment): Associate a conduit to the selector and track specific I/O events.
reregister deprecated void reregister(ISelectable conduit, Event events, Object attachment): Deprecated, use register instead
unregister void unregister(ISelectable conduit): Remove a conduit from the selector.
select int select(): Wait for I/O events from the registered conduits for a specified amount of time.
select int select(double timeout): Wait for I/O events from the registered conduits for a specified amount of time.
select int select(TimeSpan timeout): Wait for I/O events from the registered conduits for a specified amount of time.
selectedSet ISelectionSet selectedSet(): Return the selection set resulting from the call to any of the select() methods.
key SelectionKey key(ISelectable conduit): Return the selection key resulting from the registration of a conduit to the selector.
count size_t count(): Return the number of keys resulting from the registration of a conduit to the selector.
toTimeval timeval* toTimeval(timeval* tv, TimeSpan interval): * Cast the time duration to a C timeval struct.
checkErrno void checkErrno(string file, size_t line): Check the 'errno' global variable from the C standard library and throw an exception with the description of the error.

Examples

import tango.io.selector.SelectSelector;

Socket socket;
ISelector selector = new SelectSelector();

selector.open(100, 10);

// Register to read from socket
selector.register(socket, Event.Read);

int eventCount = selector.select(0.1); // 0.1 seconds
if (eventCount > 0)
{
    // We can now read from the socket
    socket.read();
}
else if (eventCount == 0)
{
    // Timeout
}
else if (eventCount == -1)
{
    // Another thread called the wakeup() method.
}
else
{
    // Error: should never happen.
}

selector.close();
