/** \brief Mixin to provide standard implementations for nextPacketRange and nextPacketType
This mixin class simplifies the definition of simple packets with fixed-size headers and/or
- trailers. For this type of Packet, this mixin provides the nextPacketRange() and
- nextPacketType() members:
+ trailers. For this type of Packet, this mixin provides the nextPacketRange() member. If you
+ additionally provide the optional \a Registry argument, PacketTypeMixin provides a simple
+ implementation of nextPacketType. When using the PacketTypeMixin, the implementation of a
+ packet is simplified to:
\code
+ // Here 'SomeRegistryTag' is optional
struct SimplePacketType
: public senf::PacketTypeBase
- pyblic senf:PacketTypeMixin<SimplePacketType, SomeRegistryTag>
+ public senf:PacketTypeMixin<SimplePacketType, SomeRegistryTag>

+ typedef senf::PacketTypeMixin<SimplePacketType, SomeRegistryTag> mixin;
+ typedef senf::ConcretePacket<SimplePacketType> packet;
+ typedef SomePacketParser parser;
+
+ using mixin::nextPacketRange;
+ // Only if the optional 'Registry' argument is provided
+ using mixin::nextPacketType;
+ // Only if using the default implementation
+ using mixin::initSize;
+ // Only if using the default implementation
+ using mixin::init;
+
static interpreter::size_type initSize()

// This member is optional. If it is not defined, 'senf::init_size<parser>::value'
return header_size;
}
+ static void init(packet p)
+ {
+ // This member is optional. The default implementation calls the parsers init()
+ // member.
+ }
+
static registry_key_t nextPacketKey(packet p)
{
// Return the key in the registry under which the next packet
// header is to be found. This member must be given if a Registry argument is
// passed to the PacketTypeMixin template.
- return i.fields().typeField();
+ return p->typeField();
+ }
+
+ static void finalize(packet p)
+ {
+ // optionally complete the packet by generating auto-generated information
+ // (like checksums)
+ }
+
+ static void dump(packet p, std::ostream & os)
+ {
+ // Write out a readable representation of the packet for debug purposes
}
};
\endcode
+
+ Most of the members are optional, which reduces the implementation of a fixed-sized header
+ packet with no trailer and a simple next-packet header to
+
+ \code
+ struct SimplePacketType
