A WinDispatcher provides an entity where callbacks for pending I/O operations on Windows sockets and other Windows system objects may be registered. The callbacks are invoked when the wait_and_dispatch method is called, and I/O is pending on a descriptor, or a Windows object's state has been set to signalled.
WinDispatcher should only be exposed to EventLoop.

bool add_ioevent_cb (XorpFd fd, IoEventType type, const IoEventCb& cb)
| add_ioevent_cb |
Add a hook for pending I/O operations on a callback.
Only one callback may be registered for each possible IoEventType.
If the XorpFd corresponds to a Windows socket handle, multiple callbacks may be registered for different IoEventTypes, but one and only one callback may be registered for the handle if a callback is registered for the IOT_ACCEPT event.
If the XorpFd corresponds to any other kind of Windows object handle, only a single callback may be registered, and the IoEventType must be IOT_READ. This is because Windows object handles can have a signalled or non-signalled state, and there is no way of telling specific I/O events apart without actually trying to service the I/O, which is beyond the scope of this class's responsibilities.
Parameters:
fd | a Windows object handle encapsulated in a XorpFd . |
type | the IoEventType which should trigger the callback. |
cb | callback object which shall be invoked when the event is triggered. |
Returns: true if function succeeds, false otherwise.
bool remove_ioevent_cb (XorpFd fd, IoEventType type)
| remove_ioevent_cb |
Remove hooks for pending I/O operations.
Parameters:
fd | the file descriptor. |
type | the IoEventType to remove the callback for; the special value IOT_ANY may be specified to remove all such callbacks. |
Returns: true if function succeeds, false otherwise.
inline void wait_and_dispatch (TimeVal* timeout)
| wait_and_dispatch |
Wait for a pending I/O events and invoke callbacks when they become ready.
Parameters:
timeout | the maximum period to wait for. |
void wait_and_dispatch (int ms)
| wait_and_dispatch |
Wait for a pending I/O events and invoke callbacks when they become ready.
Parameters:
millisecs | the maximum period in milliseconds to wait for. |
void dispatch_sockevent (HANDLE hevent, XorpFd fd)
| dispatch_sockevent |
