Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class connext::WriteSampleRef< T >

A reference to a data sample for writing.

A WriteSampleRef can be used much like a connext::WriteSample, but it's different in that it holds references to data and write parameters, which need to be explicitly set to existing objects, whereas WriteSample is a value type and it owns its data and info.

Template Parameters
TThe data type that this sample can contain

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<typename T >
connext::WriteSampleRef< T >::WriteSampleRef ( )
inline

Creates an object with no data.

See Also
set_data
template<typename T >
connext::WriteSampleRef< T >::WriteSampleRef ( T &  data,
WriteParams_t wparams 
)
inline

Creates an object with a reference to a data object.

See Also
set_data
template<typename T >
connext::WriteSampleRef< T >::WriteSampleRef ( WriteSample< T > &  ws)
inline

Copies the references to data and params.

After this operation, this object contains a reference to the same data and WriteParams instances as the source.

Member Function Documentation

template<typename T >
T& connext::WriteSampleRef< T >::data ( ) const
inline

Gets the data this sample contains.

Precondition
Data must have been set before

set_data
connext::WriteSample::data()
template<typename T >
WriteParams_t& connext::WriteSampleRef< T >::info ( ) const
inline

Gets the write parameters.

Precondition
The info object must have been set

template<typename T >
void connext::WriteSampleRef< T >::set_data ( T &  data)
inline

Sets a reference to the data to be written.

Parameters
dataThe data this sample will hold a reference to
template<typename T >
void connext::WriteSampleRef< T >::set_info ( WriteParams_t info)
inline

Copies the new parameters, overwriting the existing ones.

template<typename T >
bool connext::WriteSampleRef< T >::is_nil_data ( ) const
inline

Indicates if this WriteSampleRef contains a reference to data or not.

Returns
True if this sample does not contain a reference to data.
