Detailed Description

A PeriodicActivity is the general implementation of a Activity which has (realtime) periodic constraints.

A PeriodicActivity is executed in a TimerThread. Multiple PeriodicActivities having the same priority and periodicity will be executed in the same TimerThread one after the other.

It will execute a base::RunnableInterface, or the equivalent methods in it's own interface when none is given. When initialize() returns false, it will abort start(). If the PeriodicActivity is stop()'ed, finalize() is called in the calling thread of stop().

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PeriodicActivity::PeriodicActivity ( int  priority,
Seconds  period,
base::RunnableInterface r = 0 
)

Create a Periodic Activity with a given priority and period. The default scheduler for PeriodicActivity objects is ORO_SCHED_RT.

Parameters
priorityThe priority of this activity. A lookup will be done to locate a suitable TimerThread with the same priority. If it exists and it has the same period, this activity will be executed in that thread. Otherwise, a new TimerThread is created.
periodThe periodicity of the PeriodicActivity
rThe optional base::RunnableInterface to run exclusively within this Activity

Definition at line 52 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

PeriodicActivity::PeriodicActivity ( int  scheduler,
int  priority,

base::RunnableInterface r = 0 
)

Create a Periodic Activity with a given scheduler type, priority and period.

Parameters
schedulerThe scheduler in which the activitie's thread must run. Use ORO_SCHED_OTHER or ORO_SCHED_RT.
priorityThe priority of this activity. A lookup will be done to locate a suitable TimerThread with the same priority. If it exists and it has the same period, this activity will be executed in that thread. Otherwise, a new TimerThread is created.

virtual

Definition at line 95 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

bool PeriodicActivity::execute ( )
virtual

Execute this activity such that it executes a step or loop of the RunnableInterface. When you invoke execute() you intend to call the step() or loop() methods. Some activity implementations allow a user controlled execute, others ignore it, in which case execute() returns false.

Semantics: If execute() returns true, the activity has been executed exactly once during execute().

Return values
trueWhen this->isActive() and the implementation allows external executes.
falseWhen !this->isActive() or the implementation does not allow external updating.
See also
trigger() for use in callbacks which want execute() to be executed.

Implements RTT::base::ActivityInterface.

Reimplemented in RTT::extras::SimulationActivity.

Definition at line 185 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

void PeriodicActivity::finalize ( )
virtual
See also
base::RunnableInterface::finalize()

Definition at line 214 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

unsigned PeriodicActivity::getCpuAffinity ( ) const
virtual

Get the cpu affinity of this activity

Returns
The cpu affinity of this activity.

Implements RTT::base::ActivityInterface.

Definition at line 168 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

Seconds PeriodicActivity::getPeriod ( ) const
virtual

Get the periodicity of this activity in Seconds

Returns
The execution period of this activity (zero if !this->isPeriodic() ).

Implements RTT::base::ActivityInterface.

Definition at line 159 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

void PeriodicActivity::init ( )
protected

Definition at line 100 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

bool PeriodicActivity::initialize ( )
virtual
See also
base::RunnableInterface::initialize()

Definition at line 178 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

bool PeriodicActivity::isActive ( ) const
virtual

Query if the activity is started. This is less strict than isRunning(), it is true during initialize(), step() or loop() and finalize(). Use this method to check if an activity was start()ed.

Returns
true if it is active, false otherwise

Implements RTT::base::ActivityInterface.

Definition at line 154 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

bool PeriodicActivity::isPeriodic ( ) const
virtual

Inspect if this activity is periodic. If so, it will call RunnableInterface::step(). If the activity is not periodic, it will call RunnableInterface::loop().

Returns
true if periodic.

Implements RTT::base::ActivityInterface.

Definition at line 221 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

bool PeriodicActivity::isRunning ( ) const
virtual

Query if the activity is initialized and executing. This is more strict than isActive(), it is only true after initialize() is executed and before finalize() is executed. More-over, an Activity may decide to be temporarily not running (not executing code), waiting for a signal to proceed. If this->isActive() and !this->isRunning() then the Activity is in a waiting state.

Returns
true if it is running, false otherwise

Implements RTT::base::ActivityInterface.

Definition at line 149 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

bool PeriodicActivity::setCpuAffinity ( unsigned  cpu)
virtual

Set the cpu affinity of this activity.

Returns
true if it could be updated, false otherwise.

Implements RTT::base::ActivityInterface.

Definition at line 173 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

bool PeriodicActivity::setPeriod ( Seconds  s)
virtual

Set the periodicity of this activity in Seconds. Note that not all activity implementation support periods. A period of s == 0 indicates non periodic. A non supported setting returns false.

Returns
true if it could be updated, false otherwise.

Implements RTT::base::ActivityInterface.

Definition at line 164 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

bool PeriodicActivity::start ( )
virtual

Start the activity. This will call RunnableInterface::initialize() and upon success, effectively start the activity, by running the RunnableInterface::step() or RunnableInterface::loop() in a thread.

See also
isPeriodic()
Returns
true if the activity is started, false otherwise

Implements RTT::base::ActivityInterface.

Reimplemented in RTT::extras::SimulationActivity.

Definition at line 103 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

void PeriodicActivity::step ( )
virtual
See also
base::RunnableInterface::step()

Definition at line 200 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

bool PeriodicActivity::stop ( )
virtual

Stop the activity This will stop the activity by removing it from the 'run-queue' of a thread or call RunnableInterface::breakLoop(). If no errors occured, RunnableInterface::finalize() is called.

See also
isPeriodic()
Returns
true if the activity is stopped, false otherwise

Implements RTT::base::ActivityInterface.

Definition at line 134 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

os::ThreadInterface * PeriodicActivity::thread ( )
virtual

Returns a pointer to the thread which will run this activity. Will not be null.

Implements RTT::base::ActivityInterface.

Reimplemented in RTT::extras::SimulationActivity.

Definition at line 219 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

bool PeriodicActivity::timeout ( )
virtual

Requests this Activity to wakeup and call step() + work(Timeout). Will be ignored for periodic activities, since they use an internal timing mechanism, but can be used for non-periodic activities which want to emulate a timeout happening towards the base::RunnableInterface.

Implements RTT::base::ActivityInterface.

Definition at line 190 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.

bool PeriodicActivity::trigger ( )
virtual

Trigger that work has to be done. When you invoke trigger(), you intend to notify the mechanism that calls execute(), that execute() should be called. This allows a separation between actually executing code (execute()) and notifying that code must be executed (trigger()). A trigger may be ignored by the implementation, in which case trigger returns false.

Semantics: If trigger() returns true, the activity will be executed at least once from the moment trigger() is called.

Requests this Activity to wakeup and call step() + work(Trigger). If the thread is periodic, it will continue sleeping for the remainder of the time after the work() has finished.

Return values
trueWhen this->isActive() and the implementation allows external triggers.
falseWhen !this->isActive() or the implementation does not allow external triggering.

Implements RTT::base::ActivityInterface.

Definition at line 195 of file PeriodicActivity.cpp.
