Overview
This code snippet shows how to change an asynchronous method interface to a synchronous method. This can be done with CActiveSchedulerWait.
There are two different synchronous methods:
- CMyClass::DoAsynchronousL() uses CActiveSchedulerWait for waiting for the asynchronous method that completes with CMyClass::AsyncComplete()
- CMyClass::DoAsynchronousWithStatusL() uses CActiveSchedulerWait for waiting for the asynchronous method that has TRequestStatus in its interface. The method completes with CMyClass::RunL().
For more information on using CActiveSchedulerWait, see article CS000982 - Using CActiveSchedulerWait
MMP file
The following capabilities and libraries are required:
CAPABILITY None
LIBRARY euser.lib
Header
#include <e32base.h>
// for CSomeAsyncClass
class MAsynchIF
{
public:
void AsyncComplete(TInt aResult);
};
class CMyClass : public CActive, MAsynchIF
{
public:
static CMyClass* NewLC();
virtual ~CMyClass();
// Synchronous methods
TInt DoAsynchronousL();
TInt DoAsynchronousWithStatusL();
private: // From MAsynchIF (CSomeAsyncClass)
void AsyncComplete(TInt aResult);
private: // From CActive
void RunL();
void DoCancel();
private:
CSomeAsyncClass* iSomeAsyncClass;
CActiveSchedulerWait iSchedulerWait;
TInt iResult;
};
Source
CMyClass* CMyClass::NewLC()
{
CMyClass* self = new (ELeave) CMyClass();
CleanupStack::PushL(self);
self->ConstructL();
return self;
}
CMyClass::CMyClass()
: CActive(CActive::EPriorityStandard)
{
}
void CMyClass::ConstructL()
{
CActiveScheduler::Add(this);
iSomeAsyncClass = CSomeAsyncClass::NewL(this);
}
CMyClass::~CMyClass()
{
Cancel();
delete iSomeAsyncClass;
}
// This is a synchronous method even though it calls an asynchronous interface that
// completes with CMyClass::AsyncComplete()
TInt CMyClass::DoAsynchronousL()
{
User::LeaveIfError(iSomeAsyncClass->SomeAsynchronousIfL());
iSchedulerWait.Start();
// Continues here after CMyClass::AsyncComplete() is called
// by CSomeAsyncClass.
return iResult;
}
void CMyClass::AsyncComplete(TInt aResult)
{
iResult = aResult;
iSchedulerWait.AsyncStop();
}
// This is an synchronous method even though it calls an asynchronous interface that
// completes with CMyClass::RunL() because it uses TRequestStatus as
// a parameter
TInt CMyClass::DoAsynchronousWithStatusL()
{
if (!IsActive())
{
User::LeaveIfError(iSomeAsyncClass->SomeAsynchronousIfL(iStatus));
SetActive();
iSchedulerWait.Start();
// Continues here after CMyClass::RunL() is called
// by CSomeAsyncClass.
}
else
{
User::Leave(KErrNotReady);
}
return iResult;
}
void CMyClass::RunL()
{
// This is called when DoAsynchronousWithStatusL() completes
iResult = iStatus.Int();
iSchedulerWait.AsyncStop();
}
void CMyClass::DoCancel()
{
// This cancels the DoAsynchronousWithStatusL() method
iResult = KErrCancel;
iSchedulerWait.AsyncStop();
}
Postconditions
The asynchronous methods looks like a synchronous method.
