|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The TQThreadStorage class provides per-thread data storage.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p> TQThreadStorage is a template class that provides per-thread data
|
||
|
|
storage.
|
||
|
|
<p> <em>Note that due to compiler limitations, TQThreadStorage can only store pointers.</em>
|
||
|
|
<p> The <a href="#setLocalData">setLocalData</a>() function stores a single thread-specific value
|
||
|
|
for the calling thread. The data can be accessed later using the
|
||
|
|
<a href="#localData">localData</a>() functions. TQThreadStorage takes ownership of the
|
||
|
|
data (which must be created on the heap with <em>new</em>) and deletes
|
||
|
|
it when the thread exits (either normally or via termination).
|
||
|
|
<p> The <a href="#hasLocalData">hasLocalData</a>() function allows the programmer to determine if
|
||
|
|
data has previously been set using the setLocalData() function.
|
||
|
|
This is useful for lazy initializiation.
|
||
|
|
<p> For example, the following code uses TQThreadStorage to store a
|
||
|
|
single cache for each thread that calls the <em>cacheObject()</em> and
|
||
|
|
<em>removeFromCache()</em> functions. The cache is automatically
|
||
|
|
deleted when the calling thread exits (either normally or via
|
||
|
|
termination).
|
||
|
|
<p> <pre>
|
||
|
|
TQThreadStorage<TQCache<SomeClass> *> caches;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
void cacheObject( const <a href="qstring.html">TQString</a> &key, SomeClass *object )
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
if ( ! caches.hasLocalData() )
|
||
|
|
caches.setLocalData( new <a href="qcache.html">TQCache</a><SomeClass> );
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
caches.localData()->insert( key, object );
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
void removeFromCache( const <a href="qstring.html">TQString</a> &key )
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
if ( ! caches.hasLocalData() )
|
||
|
|
return; // nothing to do
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
caches.localData()->remove( key );
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
</pre>

<p> <h3> Caveats
|
||
|
|
</h3>
|
||
|
|
<a name="1"></a><p> <ul>
|
||
|
|
<p> <li> As noted above, TQThreadStorage can only store pointers due to
|
||
|
|
compiler limitations. Support for value-based objects will be
|
||
|
|
added when the majority of compilers are able to support partial
|
||
|
|
template specialization.
|
||
|
|
<p> <li> The <a href="#~TQThreadStorage">destructor</a> does <em>not</em>
|
||
|
|
delete per-thread data. TQThreadStorage only deletes per-thread
|
||
|
|
data when the thread exits or when <a href="#setLocalData">setLocalData</a>() is called
|
||
|
|
multiple times.
|
||
|
|
<p> <li> TQThreadStorage can only be used with threads started with
|
||
|
|
<a href="qthread.html">TQThread</a>. It <em>cannot</em> be used with threads started with
|
||
|
|
platform-specific APIs.
|
||
|
|
<p> <li> As a corollary to the above, platform-specific APIs cannot be
|
||
|
|
used to exit or terminate a TQThread using TQThreadStorage. Doing so
|
||
|
|
will cause all per-thread data to be leaked. See <a href="qthread.html#exit">TQThread::exit</a>()
|
||
|
|
and <a href="qthread.html#terminate">TQThread::terminate</a>().
|
||
|
|
<p> <li> TQThreadStorage <em>can</em> be used to store data for the <em>main()</em>
|
||
|
|
thread <em>after</em> <a href="qapplication.html">TQApplication</a> has been constructed. TQThreadStorage
|
||
|
|
deletes all data set for the <em>main()</em> thread when TQApplication is
|
||
|
|
destroyed, regardless of whether or not the <em>main()</em> thread has
|
||
|
|
actually finished.
|
||
|
|
<p> <li> The implementation of TQThreadStorage limits the total number of
|
||
|
|
TQThreadStorage objects to 256. An unlimited number of threads
|
||
|
|
can store per-thread data in each TQThreadStorage object.
|
||
|
|
<p> </ul>

||

<h3 class=fn><a name="TQThreadStorage"></a>TQThreadStorage::TQThreadStorage ()
|
||
|
|
</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p> Constructs a new per-thread data storage object.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQThreadStorage"></a>TQThreadStorage::~TQThreadStorage ()
|
||
|
|
</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p> Destroys the per-thread data storage object.
|
||
|
|
<p> Note: The per-thread data stored is <em>not</em> deleted. Any data left
|
||
|
|
in TQThreadStorage is leaked. Make sure that all threads using
|
||
|
|
TQThreadStorage have exited before deleting the TQThreadStorage.
|
||
|
|
<p> <p>See also <a href="#hasLocalData">hasLocalData</a>().

||
|
|
|

|

<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="hasLocalData"></a>TQThreadStorage::hasLocalData () const
|
||
|
|
</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p> Returns TRUE if the calling thread has non-zero data available;
|
||
|
|
otherwise returns FALSE.
|
||
|
|
<p> <p>See also <a href="#localData">localData</a>().
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<h3 class=fn>T & <a name="localData"></a>TQThreadStorage::localData ()
|
||
|
|
</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p> Returns a reference to the data that was set by the calling
|
||
|
|
thread.
|
||
|
|
<p> Note: TQThreadStorage can only store pointers. This function
|
||
|
|
returns a <em>reference</em> to the pointer that was set by the calling
|
||
|
|
thread. The value of this reference is 0 if no data was set by
|
||
|
|
the calling thread,
|
||
|
|
<p> <p>See also <a href="#hasLocalData">hasLocalData</a>().
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<h3 class=fn>T <a name="localData-2"></a>TQThreadStorage::localData () const
|
||
|
|
</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
|
||
|
|
<p> Returns a copy of the data that was set by the calling thread.
|
||
|
|
<p> Note: TQThreadStorage can only store pointers. This function
|
||
|
|
returns a pointer to the data that was set by the calling thread.
|
||
|
|
If no data was set by the calling thread, this function returns 0.
|
||
|
|
<p> <p>See also <a href="#hasLocalData">hasLocalData</a>().
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setLocalData"></a>TQThreadStorage::setLocalData ( T data )
|
||
|
|
</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p> Sets the local data for the calling thread to <em>data</em>. It can be
|
||
|
|
accessed later using the <a href="#localData">localData</a>() functions.
|
||
|
|
<p> If <em>data</em> is 0, this function deletes the previous data (if
|
||
|
|
any) and returns immediately.
|
||
|
|
<p> If <em>data</em> is non-zero, TQThreadStorage takes ownership of the <em>data</em> and deletes it automatically either when the thread exits
|
||
|
|
(either normally or via termination) or when <a href="#setLocalData">setLocalData</a>() is
|
||
|
|
called again.
|
||
|
|
<p> Note: TQThreadStorage can only store pointers. The <em>data</em>
|
||
|
|
argument must be either a pointer to an object created on the heap
|
||
|
|
(i.e. using <em>new</em>) or 0. You should not delete <em>data</em>
|
||
|
|
yourself; TQThreadStorage takes ownership and will delete the <em>data</em> itself.
|
||
|
|
<p> <p>See also <a href="#localData">localData</a>() and <a href="#hasLocalData">hasLocalData</a>().
