## Behavior

enum Redirector::Behavior

Controls signal propagation behavior.

Enumerator
DATA_ONLY | Pass data only.
PASS_SIGNALS | Pass signals.
PASS_WAIT_OBJECTS | Pass wait events.
PASS_EVERYTHING | Pass everything. PASS_EVERYTHING is default

Definition at line 760 of file filters.h.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## Redirector()

Redirector::Redirector | ( | BufferedTransformation & | target,
|  | Behavior | behavior = `PASS_EVERYTHING`
| ) |  |

inline

Construct a Redirector.

Parameters

  target | the destination BufferedTransformation
  behavior | flags specifying signal propagation

Definition at line 779 of file filters.h.

## Member Function Documentation

## Redirect()

void Redirector::Redirect | ( | BufferedTransformation & | target | ) |

inline

Redirect input to another BufferedTransformation.

Parameters

  target | the destination BufferedTransformation

Definition at line 784 of file filters.h.

## CanModifyInput()

bool Redirector::CanModifyInput | ( |  | ) | const

inline virtual

Determines whether input can be modifed by the callee.

Returns
  true if input can be modified, false otherwise

The base class implementation returns false.

Reimplemented from BufferedTransformation.

Definition at line 795 of file filters.h.

## Initialize()

void Redirector::Initialize | ( | const NameValuePairs & | parameters,
|  | int | propagation
| ) |  |

virtual

Initialize or reinitialize this object, with signal propagation.

Parameters

  parameters | a set of NameValuePairs to initialize or reinitialize this object
  propagation | the number of attached transformations the Initialize() signal should be passed

Initialize() is used to initialize or reinitialize an object using a variable number of arbitrarily typed arguments. The function avoids the need for multiple constuctors providing all possible combintations of configurable parameters.

propagation count includes this object. Setting propagation to `1` means this object only. Setting propagation to `-1` means unlimited propagation.

Implements CustomSignalPropagation< Sink >.

Definition at line 480 of file filters.cpp.

## CreatePutSpace()

byte* Redirector::CreatePutSpace | ( | size_t & | size | ) |

inline virtual

Request space which can be written into by the caller.

Parameters

  size | the requested size of the buffer

The purpose of this method is to help avoid extra memory allocations.

size is an IN and OUT parameter and used as a hint. When the call is made, size is the requested size of the buffer. When the call returns, size is the size of the array returned to the caller.

The base class implementation sets size to 0 and returns NULL.

Note
  Some objects, like ArraySink, cannot create a space because its fixed. In the case of an ArraySink, the pointer to the array is returned and the size is remaining size.

Reimplemented from BufferedTransformation.

Definition at line 799 of file filters.h.

## Put2()

size_t Redirector::Put2 | ( | const byte * | inString,
|  | size_t | length,
|  | int | messageEnd,
|  | bool | blocking
| ) |  |

inline virtual

Input multiple bytes for processing.

Parameters

  inString | the byte buffer to process
  length | the size of the string, in bytes
  messageEnd | means how many filters to signal MessageEnd() to, including this one
  blocking | specifies whether the object should block when processing input

Derived classes must implement Put2().

Implements BufferedTransformation.

Definition at line 809 of file filters.h.

## Flush()

bool Redirector::Flush | ( | bool | hardFlush,
|  | int | propagation = `-1`,
|  | bool | blocking = `true`
| ) |  |

inline virtual

Flush buffered input and/or output, with signal propagation.

Parameters

  hardFlush | is used to indicate whether all data should be flushed
  propagation | the number of attached transformations the Flush() signal should be passed
  blocking | specifies whether the object should block when processing input

propagation count includes this object. Setting propagation to `1` means this object only. Setting propagation to `-1` means unlimited propagation.

Note
  Hard flushes must be used with care. It means try to process and output everything, even if there may not be enough data to complete the action. For example, hard flushing a HexDecoder would cause an error if you do it after inputing an odd number of hex encoded characters.
  For some types of filters, like ZlibDecompressor, hard flushes can only be done at "synchronization points". These synchronization points are positions in the data stream that are created by hard flushes on the corresponding reverse filters, in this example ZlibCompressor. This is useful when zlib compressed data is moved across a network in packets and compression state is preserved across packets, as in the SSH2 protocol.

Implements CustomFlushPropagation< Sink >.

## MessageSeriesEnd()

bool Redirector::MessageSeriesEnd | ( | int | propagation = `-1`,
|  | bool | blocking = `true`
| ) |  |

inline virtual

Marks the end of a series of messages, with signal propagation.

Parameters

  propagation | the number of attached transformations the MessageSeriesEnd() signal should be passed
  blocking | specifies whether the object should block when processing input

Each object that receives the signal will perform its processing, decrement propagation, and then pass the signal on to attached transformations if the value is not 0.

propagation count includes this object. Setting propagation to `1` means this object only. Setting propagation to `-1` means unlimited propagation.

Note
  There should be a MessageEnd() immediately before MessageSeriesEnd().

Reimplemented from BufferedTransformation.

Definition at line 813 of file filters.h.

## ChannelCreatePutSpace()

byte* Redirector::ChannelCreatePutSpace | ( | const std::string & | channel,
|  | size_t & | size
| ) |  |

inline virtual

Request space which can be written into by the caller.

Parameters

  channel | the channel to process the data
  size | the requested size of the buffer

Returns
  a pointer to a memroy block with length size

The purpose of this method is to help avoid extra memory allocations.

size is an IN and OUT parameter and used as a hint. When the call is made, size is the requested size of the buffer. When the call returns, size is the size of the array returned to the caller.

The base class implementation sets size to 0 and returns NULL.

Note
  Some objects, like ArraySink(), cannot create a space because its fixed. In the case of an ArraySink(), the pointer to the array is returned and the size is remaining size.

Parameters

  channel | the channel to signal the end of a series of messages
  propagation | the number of attached transformations the ChannelMessageSeriesEnd() signal should be passed
  blocking | specifies whether the object should block when processing input

Each object that receives the signal will perform its processing, decrement propagation, and then pass the signal on to attached transformations if the value is not 0.

## GetWaitObjects()

void Redirector::GetWaitObjects | ( | WaitObjectContainer & | container,

| ) |  |

inline virtual

Retrieves waitable objects.

Parameters

  container | the wait container to receive the references to the objects
  callStack | CallStack object used to select waitable objects

GetWaitObjects is usually called in one of two ways. First, it can be called like `something.GetWaitObjects(c, CallStack("my func after X", 0));`. Second, if in an outer GetWaitObjects() method that itself takes a callStack parameter, it can be called like `innerThing.GetWaitObjects(c, CallStack("MyClass::GetWaitObjects at X", &callStack));`.
