queue_node

[flow_graph.queue_node]

A node that forwards messages in a first-in first-out (FIFO) order.

// Defined in header <oneapi/tbb/flow_graph.h>

namespace oneapi {
namespace tbb {
namespace flow {

    template <typename T >
    class queue_node : public graph_node, public receiver<T>, public sender<T> {
    public:
        explicit queue_node( graph &g );
        queue_node( const queue_node &src );
        ~queue_node();

        bool try_put( const T &v );
        bool try_get( T &v );
    };

} // namespace flow
} // namespace tbb
} // namespace oneapi

Requirements:

  • The type T must meet the CopyConstructible requirements from [copyconstructible] and CopyAssignable requirements from [copyassignable] ISO C++ Standard sections.

queue_node forwards messages in a FIFO order to a single successor in its successor set.

queue_node is a graph_node, receiver and sender.

queue_node has a buffering and single-push properties.

Member functions

explicit queue_node(graph &g)

Constructs an empty queue_node that belongs to the graph g.

queue_node(const queue_node &src)

Constructs an empty queue_node that belongs to the same graph g as src. Any intermediate state of src, including its links to predecessors and successors, is not copied.

bool try_put(const T &v)

Adds v to the set of items managed by the node, and tries forwarding the least recently added item to a successor.

Returns: true.

bool try_get(T &v)

Returns: true if an item can be taken from the node and assigned to v. Returns false if there is no item currently in the queue_node or if the node is reserved.

Example

Usage scenario is similar to buffer_node except that messages are passed in first-in first-out (FIFO) order.
