Helper classes
The
salhelper
module has a raft of classes designed to make SAL usage easier:Class | Description |
---|---|
Condition
ConditionModifier
ConditionWaiter | A wrapper around osl::Condition , you construct a new ConditionModifier to start a condition variable, and the destructor sets the condition variable. To wait on the condition variable, you construct a ConditionWaiter (which takes an optional timeout parameter). |
ORealDynamicLoader | Wrapper around the oslModule interface, the function newInstance() initializes the loader, loads the library and call the initialization function. To get the list of initialized API functions call on getApi() . |
LinkResolver | On file systems that use file links, to resolve the file linkage, you use this class - the constructor takes a file status mask, and to fetch the file status (which, if you recall, is how you get things like the filename) you call on fetchFileStatus(rURL, nDepth=128) where the depth is how many times it follows the link (and returns the error E_MULTIHOP if it reaches this limit). |
ReferenceObject | Simple reference counting class, but deprecated in favour of SimpleReferenceObject |
SimpleReferenceObject | Replaces ReferenceObject , however it uses class local new and delete operators to ensure they are called on correctly from within shared libraries that have classes that inherit from it. |
SingletonRef | Singleton class |
Thread | A safe implementation of osl::Thread |
TTimeValue | Helper class for easier manipulation with TimeValue, the times are seconds in UTC since 1st January, 1970. |
