Enumeration Type Documentation

◆ SharedLibraryFlags

enum class ts::SharedLibraryFlags : uint16_t

strong

Bit masks options to load shared libraries.

Enumerator
NONE	No option.
PERMANENT	The shared library remains active when the SharedLibrary object is destroyed (unloaded otherwise).

Function Documentation

◆ LastSysErrorCode()

int ts::LastSysErrorCode ( )

inline

Get the error code of the last operating system call.

The validity of the returned value may depends on specific conditions.

Portability of error code representation: On UNIX, error codes are just int. On Windows, error codes are DWORD, which is compatible with int. In C++11, std::error_core uses int for error codes. Therefore, because of this new C++11 feature, we just use int.

Windows note: According to Windows documentation, socket functions should call WSAGetLastError() instead of GetLastError() to retrieve the error code. This is an oddity from the old 16-bit Windows API. On Win32, various sources confirm that WSAGetLastError() just call GetLastError(). Thus, in this application, we do not make the difference.

Returns: The error code of the last operating system call.

◆ SysErrorCodeMessage()

std::string ts::SysErrorCodeMessage	(	int	code = `LastSysErrorCode()`,
		const std::error_category &	category = `std::system_category()`
	)

inline

Format a system error code into a string.

Parameters

[in]	code	An error code from the operating system. Typically a result from `errno` (Unix) or `GetLastError()` (Windows).
[in]	category	Error category, system by default.

Returns: A string describing the error.

◆ ExecutableFile()

fs::path ts::ExecutableFile ( )

Get the name of the current application executable file.

Returns: The full path of the executable file which is run in the current process.

◆ CallerLibraryFile()

fs::path ts::CallerLibraryFile ( )

Get the name of the executable or shared library file containing the caller code.

Returns: The full path of the file or empty in case of error or if not supported.

◆ IsPrivilegedUser()

bool ts::IsPrivilegedUser ( )

Check if the current user is privileged (root on UNIX, an administrator on Windows).

Returns: True if the current user is privileged.

◆ GetProcessCpuTime()

cn::milliseconds ts::GetProcessCpuTime ( )

Get the CPU time of the process in milliseconds.

Returns: The CPU time of the process in milliseconds.

Exceptions

ts::Exception on error.

◆ GetProcessVirtualSize()

size_t ts::GetProcessVirtualSize ( )

Get the virtual memory size of the process in bytes.

Returns: The virtual memory size of the process in bytes.

Exceptions

ts::Exception on error.

◆ IgnorePipeSignal()

void ts::IgnorePipeSignal ( )

Ensure that writing to a broken pipe does not kill the current process.

On UNIX systems, writing to a broken pipe, i.e. a pipe with no process reading from it, kills the current process. This may not be what you want. This functions prevents this.

UNIX Systems: This function ignores SIGPIPE. Writing to a broken pipe will now return an error instead of killing the process.

Windows systems: This function does nothing (because there is no need to do anything).

◆ SetTimersPrecision()

template<class Rep , class Period >

void ts::SetTimersPrecision ( cn::duration< Rep, Period > & precision )

Request a minimum resolution for the system timers.

Parameters

[in,out] precision On input, specify the requested minimum resolution in any std::chrono::duration units. On output, return the obtained guaranteed minimum resolution. The guaranteed precision value can be equal to or greater than the requested value. The default system resolution is 20 ms on Win32, which can be too long for applications.

◆ StdInIsTerminal()

bool ts::StdInIsTerminal ( )

Check if the standard input is a terminal.

Returns: True if the standard input is a terminal.

◆ StdOutIsTerminal()

bool ts::StdOutIsTerminal ( )

Check if the standard output is a terminal.

Returns: True if the standard output is a terminal.

◆ StdErrIsTerminal()

bool ts::StdErrIsTerminal ( )

Check if the standard error is a terminal.

Returns: True if the standard error is a terminal.

◆ SetBinaryModeStdin()

bool ts::SetBinaryModeStdin ( Report & report = (ts::CerrReport::Instance()) )

Put the standard input stream in binary mode.

On UNIX systems, this does not make any difference. On Windows systems, however, in a stream which is not open in binary mode, there is automatic translation between LF and CR-LF. The standard input is open in text mode (non-binary). This function forces it into binary mode.

Parameters

[in,out] report Where to report errors.

Returns: True on success, false on error. If report is a subclass of ts::Args, terminate the application on error.

◆ SetBinaryModeStdout()

bool ts::SetBinaryModeStdout ( Report & report = (ts::CerrReport::Instance()) )

Put the standard output stream in binary mode.

On UNIX systems, this does not make any difference. On Windows systems, however, in a stream which is not open in binary mode, there is automatic translation between LF and CR-LF. The standard output is open in text mode (non-binary). This function forces it into binary mode.

Parameters

[in,out] report Where to report errors.

Returns: True on success, false on error. If report is a subclass of ts::Args, terminate the application on error.
