[Ace-users] [ace-users] Changing the reactor of a svc_handler

[Steve Huston]

Hi Philippe,
 
You should be aware of the issues due to delayed handler removal, esp
in the case of ACE_WFMO_Reactor. You'd probably do better removing the
DONT_CALL flag from remove_handler() and wait until the handle_close()
callback(s) completed before registering to the new reactor.
 
Please see C++NPv2 chapters 3 and 4 for more details on these issues.
You can learn more about C++NPv2 at

Best regards,
-Steve

Subject: [ace-users] Changing the reactor of a svc_handler



Hi, 
I would like to do the following, can you tell me if the idea is
correct, risky or even impossible ? 

I have a subclass of Svc_Handler, which is bound to a reactor. At some
point, I would like to affect it to another reactor, which is running
in another thread. To do this, I would first detach the handler from
the first reactor with Reactor::remove_handler( myhandle,
ALL_EVENTS_MASK | DONT_CALL), pass a pointer on my handler to a second
thread through a message queue, and then reattach the handler to the
second reactor using Reactor::register_handler( myhandle, oldmask).

Is this a correct way to change my handler of thread/reactor ? Are
there any potential problem I should be aware of while doing this ?

regards,
