};

DESCRIPTION

This class refines the dispatching mechanism for the Select_Reactor by taking advantage of the priority method on ACE_Event_Handler.

Initialization and termination methods.

ACE_Priority_Reactor (ACE_Sig_Handler * = 0, ACE_Timer_Queue * = 0);

Initialize ACE_Priority_Reactor with the default size.

ACE_Priority_Reactor (
    size_t size,
    int restart = 0,
    ACE_Sig_Handler * = 0,
    ACE_Timer_Queue * = 0
    );

Initialize ACE_Priority_Reactor with size size.

virtual ~ACE_Priority_Reactor (void);

Close down the select_reactor and release all of its resources.

void dump (void) const;

Dump the state of an object.

ACE_ALLOC_HOOK_DECLARE;

Declare the dynamic allocation hooks.

Dispatching methods.

virtual int dispatch_io_set (
    int number_of_active_handles,
    int &number_dispatched,
    int mask,
    ACE_Handle_Set &dispatch_mask,
    ACE_Handle_Set &ready_mask,
    ACE_EH_PTMF callback
    );

We simply override this function to implement the priority dispatching.
