indexer_node¶

[flow_graph.indexer_node]

indexer_node broadcasts messages received at its input ports to all of its successors. The messages are broadcast individually as they are received at each port. The output is a tagged message that contains a tag and a value; the tag identifies the input port on which the message was received.

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

namespace tbb {
namespace flow {

    template<typename T0, typename... TN>
    class indexer_node : public graph_node, public sender</*implementation_defined*/> {
    public:
        indexer_node(graph &g);
        indexer_node(const indexer_node &src);

        using input_ports_type = /*implementation_defined*/;
        input_ports_type &input_ports();

        using output_type = tagged_msg<size_t, T0, TN...>;
        bool try_get( output_type &v );
    };

} // namespace flow
} // namespace tbb

Requirements:

The T type and all types in TN template parameter pack shall meet the CopyConstructible requirements from [copyconstructible] and CopyAssignable requirements from [copyassignable] ISO C++ Standard sections.

An indexer_node is a graph_node and sender<tagged_msg<size_t, T0, TN...>>. It contains a tuple of input ports, each of which is a receiver specified by corresponding input template parameter pack element. It supports multiple input receivers with distinct types and broadcasts each received message to all of its successors. Unlike a join_node, each message is broadcast individually to all successors of the indexer_node as it arrives at an input port. Before broadcasting, a message is tagged with the index of the port on which the message arrived.

indexer_node has a discarding and broadcast-push properties.

The function template input_port simplifies the syntax for getting a reference to a specific input port.

Member types¶

input_ports_type is an alias to a tuple of input ports.
output_type is an alias to the message of type tagged_msg, which is sent to successors.

Member functions¶

indexer_node(graph &g)¶: Constructs an indexer_node that belongs to the graph g.

indexer_node(const indexer_node &src)¶: Constructs an indexer_node. The list of predecessors, messages in the input ports, and successors are not copied.

input_ports_type &input_ports(): Returns: A std::tuple of receivers. Each element inherits from receiver<T> where T is the type of message expected at that input. Each tuple element can be used like any other receiver<T>.

bool try_get(output_type &v)

An indexer_node contains no buffering and therefore does not support gets.

Returns: false.
