Detailed Description

Defines a State within the State Model.

This class provides the means to define a state within a set or dictionary of states, and assign the state an handler method to execute the state's actions. It derives from LabeledValue which allows a set of states to be keyed by integer constants.

Because a state model can be paused in selected states, this class also provides the means for specifying a pausing mode and for checking whether the state model should be paused when entering this state.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ State()

isc::util::State::State ( const int value,
const std::string & label,
StateHandler handler,
const StatePausing & state_pausing = STATE_PAUSE_NEVER )

Constructor.

Parameters
valueis the numeric value of the state
labelis the text label to assign to the state
handleris the bound instance method which handles the state's action.
state_pausingpausing mode selected for the given state. The default value is STATE_PAUSE_NEVER.

A typical invocation might look this:

State(SOME_INT_VAL, "SOME_INT_VAL",
std::bind(&StateModelDerivation::someHandler, this));
State(const int value, const std::string &label, StateHandler handler, const StatePausing &state_pausing=STATE_PAUSE_NEVER)
Constructor.
Exceptions
StateModelErrorif label is null or blank.

◆ ~State()

isc::util::State::~State ( )
virtual

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

◆ run()

void isc::util::State::run ( )

Invokes the State's handler.

Definition at line 26 of file state_model.cc.

◆ shouldPause()

bool isc::util::State::shouldPause ( )

Indicates if the state model should pause upon entering this state.

It modifies the was_paused_ flag if the state model should pause. That way, it keeps track of visits in this particular state, making it possible to pause only upon the first transition to the state when STATE_PAUSE_ONCE mode is used.
