This header provides macros that allows a signal to be emitted from a derived class of its owner.

In 'protected' section of owner class declaration, DECLARE_SIGNAL_EMIT(signalName) From a derived class of owner, this->emitSignal(signalName, arg1, arg2);

Definition in file signal-emit.hpp.

Macro Definition Documentation

#define DECLARE_SIGNAL_EMIT (   signalName)
Value:
template<typename ...TArgs> \
void emit_##signalName(const TArgs&... args) \
{ \
signalName(args...); \
}

(implementation detail) declares a 'emit_signalName' method

Note
This macro should be used in 'protected' section so that it's accessible by derived classes.
emit_signalName method is implementation detail. Derived classes should use 'emitSignal' macro.
The name 'emit_signalName' is an intentional violation of code-style rule 2.5.
The method is declared as a template, so that the macro doesn't need argument types. But only argument types that are compatible with Signal declaration will work.

Definition at line 59 of file signal-emit.hpp.

#define NDN_CXX_SIGNAL_EMIT (   signalName,
  ... 
)    emit_##signalName(__VA_ARGS__)

(implementation detail) invokes emit_signalName method

Note
C99 requires at least one argument to be passed in VA_ARGS, thus a DummyExtraArg is expected at the end of VA_ARGS, which will be accepted but ignored by Signal::operator() overload.
