# class ParallelSocketAcceptor

Library: Net
Package: Reactor
Header: Poco/Net/ParallelSocketAcceptor.h

## Description

This class implements the Acceptor part of the Acceptor-Connector design pattern. Only the difference from single-threaded version is documented here, For full description see Poco::Net::SocketAcceptor documentation.

This is a multi-threaded version of SocketAcceptor, it differs from the single-threaded version in number of reactors (defaulting to number of processors) that can be specified at construction time and is rotated in a round-robin fashion by event handler. See ParallelSocketAcceptor::onAccept and ParallelSocketAcceptor::createServiceHandler documentation and implementation for details.

## Member Summary

Member Functions: createServiceHandler, init, next, onAccept, reactor, reactors, registerAcceptor, setReactor, socket, unregisterAcceptor

## Types

### ParallelReactor

typedef Poco::Net::ParallelSocketReactor < SR > ParallelReactor;

### ReactorVec

typedef std::vector < typename ParallelReactor::Ptr > ReactorVec;

## Constructors

### ParallelSocketAcceptor

explicit ParallelSocketAcceptor(
ServerSocket & socket,
unsigned threads = Poco::Environment::processorCount ()
);

Creates a ParallelSocketAcceptor using the given ServerSocket, sets number of threads and populates the reactors vector.

### ParallelSocketAcceptor

ParallelSocketAcceptor(
ServerSocket & socket,
SocketReactor & reactor,
unsigned threads = Poco::Environment::processorCount ()
);

Creates a ParallelSocketAcceptor using the given ServerSocket, sets the number of threads, populates the reactors vector and registers itself with the given SocketReactor.

## Destructor

### ~ParallelSocketAcceptor

virtual ~ParallelSocketAcceptor();

Destroys the ParallelSocketAcceptor.

## Member Functions

### onAccept

void onAccept(
ReadableNotification * pNotification
);

Accepts connection and creates event handler.

### registerAcceptor

virtual void registerAcceptor(
SocketReactor & reactor
);

Registers the ParallelSocketAcceptor with a SocketReactor.

A subclass can override this function to e.g. register an event handler for timeout event.

The overriding method must either call the base class implementation or register the accept handler on its own.

### setReactor

void setReactor(
SocketReactor & reactor
);

Sets the reactor for this acceptor.

### unregisterAcceptor

virtual void unregisterAcceptor();

Unregisters the ParallelSocketAcceptor.

A subclass can override this function to e.g. unregister its event handler for a timeout event.

The overriding method must either call the base class implementation or unregister the accept handler on its own.

### createServiceHandler

virtual ServiceHandler * createServiceHandler(
StreamSocket & socket
);

Create and initialize a new ServiceHandler instance.

Subclasses can override this method.

### init

void init();

Populates the reactors vector.

### next

std::size_t & next();

Returns reference to the next reactor index.

### reactor

SocketReactor * reactor();

Returns a pointer to the SocketReactor where this SocketAcceptor is registered.

The pointer may be null.

### reactor

SocketReactor * reactor(
std::size_t idx
);

Returns reference to the reactor at position idx.

### reactors

ReactorVec & reactors();

Returns reference to vector of reactors.

### socket

Socket & socket();

Returns a reference to the SocketAcceptor's socket.
