Detailed Description

template<typename... Inputs>
class fkie_message_filters::SimpleUserFilter< Inputs >

Simplified filter with user-defined callback function.

This is a simplified version of the UserFilter where inputs and outputs are identical. A user-defined processing function is called for all incoming data. If the function returns true, the data is passed on, otherwise the data is discarded.

The filter will throw a std::bad_function_call exception if it is invoked without a user-defined processing function.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ Input

template<typename... Inputs>
using fkie_message_filters::Sink< Inputs >::Input = IO<Inputs...>
inherited

Grouped input types.

This type can be used to define sources with matching types.

◆ Output

using fkie_message_filters::Source< Outputs >::Output = IO<Outputs...>
inherited

Grouped output types.

This type can be used to define sinks with matching types.

◆ ProcessingFunction

template<typename... Inputs>
using fkie_message_filters::SimpleUserFilter< Inputs >::ProcessingFunction = std::function<bool(const Inputs&...)>

Processing function type.

This can be any user-defined function and will be called to process incoming data.

Return values
trueif the data shall be passed to the connected sinks
falseif the data shall be discarded
Exceptions
Does not throw any exceptions.

Member Function Documentation

◆ connect_to_sink()

Connection fkie_message_filters::Source< Outputs >::connect_to_sink ( Sink< Outputs... > &  dst)
noexceptinherited

Connect this source to a sink.

Can be called multiple times to connect multiple sinks; in that case, the sinks receive data in the same order as they have been connected. This function does basically the same thing as Sink::connect_to_source(), only from the opposite point of view.

  • dst the sink that is to be connected
Returns
a connection object that can be used to monitor or sever the created connection
Exceptions
Does not throw any exceptions.

◆ connect_to_source()

template<typename... Inputs>
Connection fkie_message_filters::Sink< Inputs >::connect_to_source ( Source< Inputs... > &  src)
noexceptinherited

Connect this sink to a source.

Can be called multiple times to connect multiple sources; in that case, the sink receives data from all connected sources. This function does basically the same thing as Source::connect_to_sink(), only from the opposite point of view.

  • src the source that is to be connected
Returns
a connection object that can be used to monitor or sever the created connection
Exceptions
Does not throw any exceptions.

◆ disconnect_from_all_sinks()

void fkie_message_filters::Source< Outputs >::disconnect_from_all_sinks ( )
noexceptinherited

Disconnect from all connected sinks.

Severs the connection to all sinks, turning the send() method into a no-op.

Exceptions
Does not throw any exceptions.

◆ disconnect_from_all_sources()

template<typename... Inputs>
void fkie_message_filters::Sink< Inputs >::disconnect_from_all_sources ( )
noexceptinherited

Disconnect from all connected sources.

Severs the connection to all sources. The receive() method will not be called any more.

Exceptions
Does not throw any exceptions.

◆ receive()

template<typename... Inputs>
void fkie_message_filters::SimpleUserFilter< Inputs >::receive ( const Inputs &...  in)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Process incoming data.

Derived classes need to override this method to handle all data that is to be consumed by the sink.

Exceptions
Depends on the implementation.

Implements fkie_message_filters::Sink< Inputs >.

◆ reset()

virtual void fkie_message_filters::FilterBase::reset ( )
inlinevirtualnoexceptinherited

Reset filter state.

For stateful filters, this method resets the internal state as if the filter had just been created. Existing connections to sources and sinks are unaffected.

The default implementation does nothing.

Exceptions
Does not throw any exceptions.

Reimplemented in fkie_message_filters::Buffer< Inputs >, fkie_message_filters::Buffer< Inputs... >, fkie_message_filters::TfFilter< Inputs >, fkie_message_filters::TfFilter< Inputs... >, fkie_message_filters::Combiner< PolicyTmpl, IOs >, fkie_message_filters::Sequencer< Inputs >, and fkie_message_filters::Sequencer< Inputs... >.

◆ send()

void fkie_message_filters::Source< Outputs >::send ( const Outputs &...  out)
protectedinherited

Pass data to all connected sinks.

  • out data
Exceptions
Does not throw any exceptions, but will propagate uncaught exceptions from filter callbacks.

◆ set_processing_function()

template<typename... Inputs>
void fkie_message_filters::SimpleUserFilter< Inputs >::set_processing_function ( const ProcessingFunction f)
noexcept

Set the user-defined processing function.

You must call this method before the filter gets invoked with incoming data.

Exceptions
Does not throw any exceptions.
