/** \page page_tutorial3 Tutorial - Part 3: Forcing A Roundtrip
|
||||
|
||||
\ref page_tutorial2 | \ref page_tutorial "Index" | \ref page_tutorial4
|
||||
|
||||
In this tutorial we show how to force a roundtrip to the server
|
||||
to make sure an action completed.
|
||||
|
||||
We'll change our example from \ref page_tutorial2 "Tutorial 2" slightly
|
||||
and add the extra code to implement the roundtrip.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's take the following small method first:
|
||||
|
||||
\snippet tutorial3.c roundtrip
|
||||
|
||||
Let's take a look at what this method does.
|
||||
|
||||
\code{.c}
|
||||
struct spa_hook core_listener;
|
||||
|
||||
pw_core_add_listener(core, &core_listener, &core_events, &d);
|
||||
\endcode
|
||||
|
||||
First of all we add a listener for the events of the core
|
||||
object. We are only interested in the `done` event in this
|
||||
tutorial. This is the event handler:
|
||||
|
||||
\code{.c}
|
||||
static void on_core_done(void *data, uint32_t id, int seq)
|
||||
{
|
||||
struct roundtrip_data *d = data;
|
||||
|
||||
if (id == PW_ID_CORE && seq == d->pending)
|
||||
pw_main_loop_quit(d->loop);
|
||||
}
|
||||
\endcode
|
||||
|
||||
When the done event is received for an object with id `PW_ID_CORE` and
|
||||
a certain sequence number `seq`, this function will call `pw_main_loop_quit()`.
|
||||
|
||||
Next we do:
|
||||
|
||||
\code{.c}
|
||||
d.pending = pw_core_sync(core, PW_ID_CORE, 0);
|
||||
\endcode
|
||||
|
||||
This triggers the `sync` method on the core object with id
|
||||
`PW_ID_CORE` and sequence number 0.
|
||||
|
||||
Because this is a method on a proxy object, it will be executed
|
||||
asynchronously and the return value will reflect this. PipeWire
|
||||
uses the return values of the underlying SPA (Simple Plugin API)
|
||||
helper objects (See also \ref page_spa_design ).
|
||||
|
||||
Because all messages on the PipeWire server are handled sequentially,
|
||||
the sync method will be executed after all previous methods are
|
||||
completed. The PipeWire server will emit a `done` event with the
|
||||
same ID and the return value of the original `pw_core_sync()`
|
||||
method in the sequence number.
|
||||
|
||||
We then run the mainloop to send the messages to the server and
|
||||
receive the events:
|
||||
|
||||
\code{.c}
|
||||
pw_main_loop_run(loop);
|
||||
\endcode
|
||||
|
||||
When we get the done event, we can compare it to the sync method
|
||||
and then we know that we did a complete roundtrip and there are no
|
||||
more pending methods on the server. We can quit the mainloop and
|
||||
remove the listener:
|
||||
|
||||
\code{.c}
|
||||
spa_hook_remove(&core_listener);
|
||||
\endcode
|
||||
|
||||
If we add this roundtrip method to our code and call it instead of the
|
||||
`pw_main_loop_run()` we will exit the program after all previous methods
|
||||
are finished. This means that the `pw_core_get_registry()` call
|
||||
completed and thus that we also received all events for the globals
|
||||
on the server.
|
||||
|
||||
\snippet tutorial3.c code
|
||||
|
||||
To compile the simple test application, copy it into a tutorial3.c file and
|
||||
use:
|
||||
|
||||
gcc -Wall tutorial3.c -o tutorial3 $(pkg-config --cflags --libs libpipewire-0.3)
|
||||
|
||||
Now that our program completes, we can take a look at how we can destroy
|
||||
the objects we created. Let's destroy each of them in reverse order that we
|
||||
created them:
|
||||
|
||||
\code{.c}
|
||||
pw_proxy_destroy((struct pw_proxy*)registry);
|
||||
\endcode
|
||||
|
||||
The registry is a proxy and can be destroyed with the generic proxy destroy
|
||||
method. After destroying the object, you should not use it anymore. It is
|
||||
an error to destroy an object more than once.
|
||||
|
||||
We can disconnect from the server with:
|
||||
|
||||
\code{.c}
|
||||
pw_core_disconnect(core);
|
||||
\endcode
|
||||
|
||||
This will also destroy the core proxy object and will remove the proxies
|
||||
that might have been created on this connection.
|
||||
|
||||
We can finally destroy our context and mainloop to conclude this tutorial:
|
||||
|
||||
\code{.c}
|
||||
pw_context_destroy(context);
|
||||
pw_main_loop_destroy(loop);
|
||||
\endcode

||||
