Detailed Description

template<typename E>
class wex::queue_thread< E >

This class offers a templatized queue you can put events in, and a thread pool that retrieves the events and publishes them through the event handler.

Type E is the type of event to be processed

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ queue_thread()

template<typename E >

wex::queue_thread< E >::queue_thread	(	event_handler &	event_handler_instance,
		unsigned int	timeout_ms = `500`
	)

inline

Constructor.

Parameters

event_handler_instance	event handler
timeout_ms	timeout im milliseconds used

Member Function Documentation

◆ emplace()

template<typename E >

void wex::queue_thread< E >::emplace ( std::unique_ptr< E > & event )

inline

Emplaces event on the queue.

The thread pool takes care of reading and clearing the queue, and sending it to the event handler (be sure you have invoked start).
