Member Function Documentation

◆ insert()

void ndn::InMemoryStorage::insert ( const Data data,
const time::milliseconds mustBeFreshProcessingWindow = INFINITE_WINDOW 
)

Inserts a Data packet.

Parameters
datathe packet to insert, must be signed and have wire encoding
mustBeFreshProcessingWindowBeyond this time period after the data is inserted, the data can only be used to answer interest without MustBeFresh selector.
Note
Packets are considered duplicate if the name with implicit digest matches. The new Data packet with the identical name, but a different payload will be placed in the in-memory storage.
It will invoke afterInsert(shared_ptr<InMemoryStorageEntry>).

◆ find() [1/2]

shared_ptr< const Data > ndn::InMemoryStorage::find ( const Interest interest)

Finds the best match Data for an Interest.

Note
It will invoke afterAccess(shared_ptr<InMemoryStorageEntry>). As currently it is impossible to determine whether a Name contains implicit digest or not, therefore this find function is not able to locate a packet according to an interest( including implicit digest) whose name is not the full name of the data matching the implicit digest.
Returns
{ the best match, if any; otherwise a null shared_ptr }

◆ find() [2/2]

shared_ptr< const Data > ndn::InMemoryStorage::find ( const Name name)

Finds the best match Data for a Name with or without the implicit digest.

If packets with the same name but different digests exist and the Name supplied is the one without implicit digest, a packet will be arbitrarily chosen to return.

Note
It will invoke afterAccess(shared_ptr<InMemoryStorageEntry>).
Returns
{ the one matched the Name; otherwise a null shared_ptr }

Definition at line 198 of file in-memory-storage.cpp.

References ndn::Name::isPrefixOf().

◆ erase()

void ndn::InMemoryStorage::erase ( const Name prefix,
const bool  isPrefix = true 
)

Deletes in-memory storage entry by prefix by default.

Parameters
prefixExact name of a prefix of the data to remove
isPrefixIf false, the function will only delete the entry completely matched with the prefix according to canonical ordering. For this case, user should substitute the prefix with full name.
Warning
Please do not use this function directly in any derived class to erase an entry from the cache, use eraseImpl() instead.
Note
It will invoke beforeErase(shared_ptr<InMemoryStorageEntry>).

◆ selectChild()

InMemoryStorageEntry * ndn::InMemoryStorage::selectChild ( const Interest interest,
Cache::index< byFullName >::type::iterator  startingPoint 
) const

Implements child selector (leftmost, rightmost, undeclared).

Operates on the first layer of a skip list.

startingPoint must be less than Interest Name. startingPoint can be equal to Interest Name only when the item is in the begin() position.

Iterates toward greater Names, terminates when application cache entry falls out of Interest prefix. When childSelector = leftmost, returns first application cache entry that satisfies other selectors. When childSelector = rightmost, it goes till the end, and returns application cache entry that satisfies other selectors. Returned application cache entry is the leftmost child of the rightmost child.

Returns
{ the best match, if any; otherwise 0 }
