Detailed Description

An abstract reactor that can be subclassed to define new reactors.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Reactor()

xronos::sdk::Reactor::Reactor	(	std::string_view	name,
		const Context &	parent_context )

Constructor.

Parameters

name	The name of the reactor instance.
parent_context	Either the environment's or the containing reactor's context.

Member Function Documentation

◆ context()

auto xronos::sdk::Reactor::context ( std::source_location source_location = std::source_location::current() ) -> ReactorContext

nodiscardprotectednoexcept

Get a context object for constructing reactor elements and contained reactors.

Parameters

source_location Source location of the call site. Normally this should be omitted to use the default argument.

Returns: This reactors's context.

◆ get_time()

auto xronos::sdk::Reactor::get_time ( ) const -> TimePoint

nodiscardprotectednoexcept

Get the current timestamp.

This does not read wall-clock time. The Xronos runtime uses an internal clock to control how a program advances.

Returns: The current timestamp as provided by the internal clock.

◆ get_lag()

auto xronos::sdk::Reactor::get_lag ( ) const -> Duration

nodiscardprotectednoexcept

Get the current lag.

Since in the Xronos SDK time does not advance while reactions execute, the internal clock may advance slower than a wall clock would. The lag denotes the difference between the wall clock and the internal clock. It is a measure of how far the execution of reactions lags behind events in the physical world.

Returns: The current lag.

◆ get_time_since_startup()

auto xronos::sdk::Reactor::get_time_since_startup ( ) const -> Duration

nodiscardprotectednoexcept

Get the time that passed since the startup event.

Returns: The difference between the current timestamp given by get_time() and the timestamp at which the program started.

◆ startup()

auto xronos::sdk::Reactor::startup ( ) const -> const Startup &

nodiscardprotectednoexcept

Get the startup event source.

Returns: An event source that triggers once when the program execution starts.

◆ shutdown()

auto xronos::sdk::Reactor::shutdown ( ) -> Shutdown &

nodiscardprotectednoexcept

Get the shutdown event source.

Returns: An event source that triggers once right before the program execution ends.

◆ connect() [1/2]

template<class T, template< class > class FromSerializer, template< class > class ToSerializer>

void xronos::sdk::Reactor::connect	(	const InputPort< T, FromSerializer > &	from,
		const InputPort< T, ToSerializer > &	to )

protected

Connect two ports.

Creates a new connection from the port given in from to the port given in to. Messages are delivered without a delay. This means that the timestamp at which the message is received is the same as the timestamp at which it was sent.

Template Parameters

T	Value type associated with events relayed by the connection.

Parameters

from	The port to draw the connection from
to	The port to draw the connection to.

See also: assemble()

◆ connect() [2/2]

template<class T, template< class > class FromSerializer, template< class > class ToSerializer>

void xronos::sdk::Reactor::connect	(	const InputPort< T, FromSerializer > &	from,
		const InputPort< T, ToSerializer > &	to,
		Duration	delay )

protected

Connect two ports with a delay.

Creates a new connection from the port given in from to the port given in to. Messages are delivered with a delay. This means that the timestamp at which the message is received is the timestamp at which it was sent plus delay.

Template Parameters

T	Value type associated with events relayed by the connection.

Parameters

from	The port to draw the connection from
to	The port to draw the connection to.
delay	The delay to apply to all messages.

See also: assemble()

◆ add_reaction()

template<class ReactionClass>

void xronos::sdk::Reactor::add_reaction	(	std::string_view	name,
		std::source_location	source_location = std::source_location::current() )

protected

Instantiate and add a new reaction to the reactor.

This is intended to be invoked when overloading assemble() in a subclass. This factor method presents the only mechanism for correctly registering a reaction for execution by the runtime.

Template Parameters

ReactionClass The reaction class to instantiate. This is typically a subclass of Reaction.

Parameters

name	The name of the reaction
source_location	Source location of the call site. Normally this should be omitted to use the default argument.

See also: assemble()

◆ assemble()

virtual void xronos::sdk::Reactor::assemble ( )

privatepure virtual

Method that sets up the internal topology of the reactor.

This method needs to be overridden by concrete subclasses. The method is called by the runtime before the execution starts. An implementation of assemble() should call add_reaction() to instantiate the reactor's reactions. If the reactor contains other reactors, their ports may be connected using connect().
