For -more information on the design and use of the ACE ASX framework please -see http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/C++-USENIX-94.ps.gz and -http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/DSEJ-94.ps.gz - -The Event Server example works as follows: - -1. When the ./Event_Server/event_server executable is run it - creates two SOCK_Acceptors, which listen for and accept incoming - connections from Consumers and Suppliers. - -2. The ./Event_Server/Transceiver/transceiver application plays - the role of either a Consumer or a Supplier (but with the current - implementation it can only play one role at a time). The - transceiver process can be started multiple times. Each call - should be either: - - # Consumer - % transceiver -p 10002 -h hostname -C - - or - - # Supplier - % transceiver -p 10003 -h hostname -S - - where 10002 and 10003 are the default Consumer listening port and - the Supplier listening port, respectively, on the event server, - "hostname" is the name of the machine the event_server is running, - and -C and -S indicate that the transceiver plays the role of a - Consumer or Supplier, respectively. I typically run the - Consumer(s) and Supplier(s) in different windows to make it easier - to understand the output. - -3. Once the Consumer(s) and Supplier(s) are connected, you can - type data from any Supplier window. This data will be routed - through the Modules/Tasks in the event_server's Stream and be - forwarded to the Consumer(s). - - Since the transceivers are full-duplex you can also send messages - from the Consumer(s) to Supplier(s), but the Event Server will warn - you about this since it's not really kosher to have Consumers - sending to Suppliers ;-) - -4. When you want to shut down the tranceivers or event server - just type ^C (which generates a SIGINT) or type any input in the - window running the Event Server. - -What makes this example particularly interesting is that once you've -got the hang of the ASX Streams architecture, you can "push" new -filtering Modules onto the event_server Stream and modify the -application's behavior transparently. - |
