Detailed Description

template<class BSLS_PROTOCOL>
class bsls::ProtocolTestImp< BSLS_PROTOCOL >

This mechanism class template is a base class for a test implementation of a protocol class defined by the BSLS_PROTOCOL template parameter. Its purpose is to reduce the boilerplate test code required to verify that derived virtual methods are called. It provides markDone member functions one of which should be called from each method of the protocol class test implementation to indicate that the virtual method is correctly overridden. It also overloads operator-> to serve as a proxy to BSLS_PROTOCOL and detect when BSLS_PROTOCOL methods are called.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class BSLS_PROTOCOL >
bsls::ProtocolTestImp< BSLS_PROTOCOL >::ProtocolTestImp (  ) 

Create an object of the ProtocolTestImp class.

template<class BSLS_PROTOCOL >
bsls::ProtocolTestImp< BSLS_PROTOCOL >::~ProtocolTestImp (  ) 

Destroy this object and check the status of the test execution (success or failure). On test failure, report it to ProtocolTest_Status.


Member Function Documentation

template<class BSLS_PROTOCOL >
BSLS_PROTOCOL* bsls::ProtocolTestImp< BSLS_PROTOCOL >::operator-> (  ) 

Dereference this object as if it were a pointer to BSLS_PROTOCOL in order to call a method on BSLS_PROTOCOL. Also mark this object as entered for the purpose of calling a protocol method.

template<class BSLS_PROTOCOL >
void bsls::ProtocolTestImp< BSLS_PROTOCOL >::markEnter (  ) 

Mark this object as entered for the purpose of calling a protocol method. The entered property is tested in the destructor to check for test failures (i.e., if entered == false then the test cannot fail since it never ran). Note that markEnter and markDone calls have to be paired for a protocol-method-call test to succeed.

template<class BSLS_PROTOCOL >
void bsls::ProtocolTestImp< BSLS_PROTOCOL >::setTestStatus ( ProtocolTest_Status testStatus  ) 

Connect this protocol test object with the specified testStatus object, which will be used for test failure reporting.

template<class BSLS_PROTOCOL >
ProtocolTest_MethodReturnType bsls::ProtocolTestImp< BSLS_PROTOCOL >::markDone (  )  const

Return a proxy object convertible to any value or pointer type. Derived classed should call this method from their implementations of protocol virtual methods to indicate that virtual methods were overridden correctly.

template<class BSLS_PROTOCOL >
ProtocolTest_MethodReturnRefType bsls::ProtocolTestImp< BSLS_PROTOCOL >::markDoneRef (  )  const

Return a proxy object convertible to any reference type. Derived classed should call this method from their implementations of protocol virtual methods to indicate that virtual methods were overridden correctly.

template<class BSLS_PROTOCOL >
template<class T >
T bsls::ProtocolTestImp< BSLS_PROTOCOL >::markDoneVal ( const T &  value  )  const

Return the specified value. Derived classes should call this method from their implementations of protocol virtual methods to indicate that virtual methods were overridden correctly.
