\brief Abstract base class for gpgme's external event loop support
This class does most of the work involved with hooking GpgME++
up with external event loops, such as the GTK or Qt ones.
It actually provides two interfaces: An interface to the gpgme
IO Callback handling and one for gpgme events. The IO Callback
interface consists of the three methods \c actOn(), \c
registerWatcher() and \c unregisterWatcher(). The event
interface consists of the three methods \c nextTrustItemEvent(),
\c nextKeyEvent() and \c operationDoneEvent().
\sect General Usage
\c EventLoopInteractor is designed to be used as a
singleton. However, in order to make any use of it, you have to
subclass it and reimplement it's pure virtual methods (see
below). We suggest you keep the constructor protected and
provide a static \c instance() method that returns the single
instance. Alternatively, you can create an instance on the
stack, e.g. in \c main().
If you want \c EventLoopInteractor to manage a particular \c
Context, just call \c manage() on the \c Context. OTOH, if you
want to disable IO callbacks for a \c Context, use \c unmanage().
\sect IO Callback Interface
One part of this interface is represented by \c
registerWatcher() and \c unregisterWatcher(), both of which are
pure virtual. \c registerWatcher() should do anything necessary
to hook up watching of file descriptor \c fd for reading (\c dir
= \c Read) or writing (\c dir = Write) to the event loop you use
and return a tag identifying that particular watching process
uniquely. This could be the index into an array of objects you
use for that purpose or the address of such an object. E.g. in
Qt, you'd essentially just create a new \c TQSocketNotifier:
\verbatim
void * registerWatcher( int fd, Direction dir ) {
return new TQSocketNotifier( fd, dir == Read ? TQSocketNotifier::Read : TQSocketNotifier::Write );
// misses connecting to the activated() signal...
}
\endverbatim
which uses the address of the created object as unique tag. The
tag returned by \c registerWatcher is stored by \c
EventLoopInteractor and passed as argument to \c
unregisterWatcher(). So, in the picture above, you'd implement \c
unregisterWatcher() like this:
\verbatim
void unregisterWatcher( void * tag ) {
delete static_cast<TQSocketNotifier*>( tag );
}
\endverbatim
The other part of the IO callback interface is \c actOn(), which
you should call if you receive notification from your event loop
about activity on file descriptor \c fd in direction \c dir. In
the picture above, you'd call this from the slot connected to
the socket notifier's \c activated() signal.
\note \c registerWatcher() as well as \c unregisterWatcher() may
be called from within \c actOn(), so be careful with
e.g. locking in threaded environments and keep in mind that the
object you used to find the \c fd and \c dir fo the \c actOn()
call might be deleted when \c actOn() returns!
