Detailed Description

Adds buffer (re)allocation functions to cCommBuffer.

This functionality is not always needed, e.g. PVM manages its pack/unpack buffers internally.


Member Function Documentation

void cCommBufferBase::allocateAtLeast ( int  size  ) 

Extend buffer to the given size is needed.

Existing buffer contents may be lost.

virtual void cCommBufferBase::assertBufferEmpty (  )  [virtual]

Utility function.

To be called after unpacking a communication buffer, it checks whether the buffer is empty. If it is not (i.e. an underflow or overflow occurred), an exception is thrown.

Implements cCommBuffer.

virtual bool cCommBufferBase::isBufferEmpty (  )  const [virtual]

Returns true if all data in buffer was used up during unpacking.

Returns false if there was underflow (too much data unpacked) or still there are unpacked data in the buffer.

Implements cCommBuffer.

void cCommBufferBase::setMessageSize ( int  size  ) 

Set message length in the buffer.

Used after receiving a message and copying it to the buffer.

Reimplemented in cFileCommBuffer.
