Status XrdCl::PostMaster::QueryTransport	(	const URL &	url,
		uint16_t	query,
		AnyObject &	result
	)

Query the transport handler for a given URL

Parameters

url	the channel to be queried
query	the query as defined in the TransportQuery struct or others that may be recognized by the protocol transport
result	the result of the query

Returns

status of the query

Status XrdCl::PostMaster::Receive	(	const URL &	url,
		Message *&	msg,
		MessageFilter *	filter,
		time_t	expires
	)

Synchronously receive a message - blocks until a message matching a filter is found in the incoming queue or the timeout passes

Parameters

url	sender of the message
msg	reference to a message pointer, the pointer will point to the received message
filter	filter object defining what to look for
expires	expiration timestamp

Returns

success when the message has been received successfully, failure otherwise

Status XrdCl::PostMaster::Receive	(	const URL &	url,
		IncomingMsgHandler *	handler,
		time_t	expires
	)

Listen to incoming messages, the listener is notified when a new message arrives and when the timeout passes

Parameters

url	sender of the message
handler	handler to be notified about new messages
expires	expiration timestamp

Returns

success when the listener has been inserted correctly

Status XrdCl::PostMaster::RegisterEventHandler	(	const URL &	url,
		ChannelEventHandler *	handler
	)

Register channel event handler.

bool XrdCl::PostMaster::Reinitialize

(

)

Reinitialize after fork.

Status XrdCl::PostMaster::RemoveEventHandler	(	const URL &	url,
		ChannelEventHandler *	handler
	)

Remove a channel event handler.

Status XrdCl::PostMaster::Send	(	const URL &	url,
		Message *	msg,
		bool	stateful,
		time_t	expires
	)

Send a message synchronously - synchronously means that it will block until the message is written to a socket

DEADLOCK WARNING: no lock should be taken while calling this method that are used in the callback as well.

Parameters

url	recipient of the message
msg	message to be sent
stateful	physical stream disconnection causes an error
expires	unix timestamp after which a failure should be reported if sending was unsuccessful

Returns

success if the message has been pushed through the wire, failure otherwise

Status XrdCl::PostMaster::Send	(	const URL &	url,
		Message *	msg,
		OutgoingMsgHandler *	handler,
		bool	stateful,
		time_t	expires
	)

Send the message asynchronously - the message is inserted into the send queue and a listener is called when the message is succesfsully pushed through the wire or when the timeout elapses

DEADLOCK WARNING: no lock should be taken while calling this method that are used in the callback as well.

Parameters

url	recipient of the message
msg	message to be sent
expires	unix timestamp after which a failure is reported to the handler
handler	handler will be notified about the status
stateful	physical stream disconnection causes an error

Returns

success if the message was successfully inserted into the send queues, failure otherwise

bool XrdCl::PostMaster::Start

(

)

Start the post master.

bool XrdCl::PostMaster::Stop

(

)

Stop the postmaster.
