Detailed Description

this allows ParaEngine to operate as a system service without GUI, such as in server mode.

normally, one should use CParaEngineApp, which is the stand ParaEngine Application with 3D graphics.

Note

: this class is cross platform.

Member Function Documentation

AcceptKeyStroke()

void CParaEngineService::AcceptKeyStroke

(

bool

bAccept = true

)

whether we will accept key stroke.

such as the "ENTER" key will terminate the program.

handle_timeout()

void CParaEngineService::handle_timeout ( const boost::system::error_code &  err )

protected

the main timer time out.

InitDaemon()

void CParaEngineService::InitDaemon ( void  )

static

call this function before calling Run() to run as a linux daemon

now entering daemon code, Be as verbose as possible when writing either to the syslog or your own logs. Debugging a daemon can be quite difficult when there isn't enough information available as to the status of the daemon.

Run()

int CParaEngineService::Run	(	const char *	pCommandLine = NULL,
		CParaEngineApp *	pApp = NULL
	)

this function does not return util service is stopped.

Parameters

pCommandLine	the command line.
pApp	if NULL, a new app is created.

Returns

the exit code.

Member Data Documentation

m_work_lifetime

boost::scoped_ptr<boost::asio::io_service::work> ParaEngine::CParaEngineService::m_work_lifetime

protected

Work for the private m_io_service_dispatcher to perform.

If we do not give the io_service some work to do then the io_service::run() function will exit immediately.
