Detailed Description

template<class Signature, class Executor>
class agrpc::Waiter< Signature, Executor >

(experimental) Utility class for uncancelable operations

Provides cancellation support for otherwise uncancelable operations by canceling only the act of waiting for completion as opposed to the operation itself.

Template Parameters

Signature	Completion signature of the operation. For example, for agrpc::Alarm::wait this would be void(bool).
Executor	Type of the I/O executor. For agrpc::Alarm this would be agrpc::GrpcExecutor or asio::any_io_executor. Default: agrpc::GrpcExecutor

Since

2.7.0 (and Boost.Asio 1.77.0)

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

~Waiter()

template<class Signature , class Executor >

agrpc::Waiter< Signature, Executor >::~Waiter ( )

inlinenoexcept

Destruct the Waiter.

All initiated operations must have been wait()ed for, otherwise the behavior is undefined.

Member Function Documentation

initiate()

template<class Signature , class Executor >

template<class Function , class ExecutorOrIoObject , class... Args>

auto agrpc::Waiter< Signature, Executor >::initiate ( Function &&  function, ExecutorOrIoObject &&  executor_or_io_object, Args &&...  args  )

inline

Initiate an operation.

Only one operation may be running at a time.

All operations must complete before this object is destructed.

Example:

using ServerRPC = agrpc::ServerRPC<&example::v1::Example::AsyncService::RequestBidirectionalStreaming>;
 
asio::awaitable<void> rpc_handler_using_waiter(ServerRPC& rpc)
{
    ServerRPC::Request request;
    ServerRPC::Response response;
 
    agrpc::Alarm alarm{rpc.get_executor()};
 
    agrpc::Waiter<void(bool)> waiter;
    waiter.initiate(agrpc::read, rpc, request);
 
    auto next_deadline = std::chrono::system_clock::now() + std::chrono::seconds(5);
 
    // Read requests from the client and send a response back every five seconds
    while (true)
    {
        auto [completion_order, read_error_code, read_ok, alarm_expired] =
            co_await asio::experimental::make_parallel_group(waiter.wait(asio::deferred),
                                                             alarm.wait(next_deadline, asio::deferred))
                .async_wait(asio::experimental::wait_for_one(), asio::use_awaitable);
        if (0 == completion_order[0])  // read completed
        {
            if (!read_ok)
            {
                co_return;
            }
            waiter.initiate(agrpc::read, rpc, request);
        }
        else  // alarm expired
        {
            co_await rpc.write(response, asio::use_awaitable);
            next_deadline = std::chrono::system_clock::now() + std::chrono::seconds(5);
        }
    }
}

Attention

When using sender/receiver and function returns a sender then only the set_value channel is forwarded to the waiting operation.

Parameters

function	Callable that will be invoked with all subsequent arguments followed by the completion handler of this Waiter (Asio) or it returns a sender composed of the result of the call (unifex/stdexec only).
executor_or_io_object	Either an executor itself or an object that implements get_executor(). This will become the I/O executor of subsequent calls to wait().

is_ready()

template<class Signature , class Executor >

bool agrpc::Waiter< Signature, Executor >::is_ready ( ) const

inlinenoexcept

Has the initiated operation finished?

Thread-safe

wait()

template<class Signature , class Executor >

template<class CompletionToken = detail::DefaultCompletionTokenT<Executor>>

auto agrpc::Waiter< Signature, Executor >::wait ( CompletionToken &&  token = detail::DefaultCompletionTokenT<Executor>{} )

inline

Wait for the initiated operation to complete.

Only one call to wait() may be outstanding at a time. May be called before an operation has been initiated. Care must be taken when invoking this function multiple times for an already completed operation as completion arguments are moved into the completion handler.

Per-Operation Cancellation

All. Upon cancellation, the initiated operation continues to run.
