Detailed Description

template<typename Service>
struct entt::service_locator< Service >

Service locator, nothing more.

A service locator can be used to do what it promises: locate services.
Usually service locators are tightly bound to the services they expose and thus it's hard to define a general purpose class to do that. This template based implementation tries to fill the gap and to get rid of the burden of defining a different specific locator for each application.

Template Parameters

Service

Type of service managed by the locator.

Member Typedef Documentation

service_type

template<typename Service >

using entt::service_locator< Service >::service_type = Service

Type of service offered.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

service_locator()

template<typename Service >

entt::service_locator< Service >::service_locator ( )

delete

Default constructor, deleted on purpose.

~service_locator()

template<typename Service >

entt::service_locator< Service >::~service_locator ( )

delete

Default destructor, deleted on purpose.

Member Function Documentation

empty()

template<typename Service >

static bool entt::service_locator< Service >::empty ( )

inlinestatic

Tests if a valid service implementation is set.

Returns

True if the service is set, false otherwise.

get()

template<typename Service >

static std::weak_ptr<Service> entt::service_locator< Service >::get ( )

inlinestatic

Returns a weak pointer to a service implementation, if any.

Clients of a service shouldn't retain references to it. The recommended way is to retrieve the service implementation currently set each and every time the need of using it arises. Otherwise users can incur in unexpected behaviors.

Returns

A reference to the service implementation currently set, if any.

ref()

template<typename Service >

static Service& entt::service_locator< Service >::ref ( )

inlinestatic

Returns a weak reference to a service implementation, if any.

Clients of a service shouldn't retain references to it. The recommended way is to retrieve the service implementation currently set each and every time the need of using it arises. Otherwise users can incur in unexpected behaviors.

Warning

In case no service implementation has been set, a call to this function results in undefined behavior.

Returns

A reference to the service implementation currently set, if any.

reset()

template<typename Service >

static void entt::service_locator< Service >::reset ( )

inlinestatic

Resets a service.

The service is no longer valid after a reset.

set() [1/2]

template<typename Service >

template<typename Impl = Service, typename... Args>

static void entt::service_locator< Service >::set ( Args &&...  args )

inlinestatic

Sets or replaces a service.

Template Parameters

Impl	Type of the new service to use.
Args	Types of arguments to use to construct the service.

Parameters

args	Parameters to use to construct the service.

set() [2/2]

template<typename Service >

static void entt::service_locator< Service >::set ( std::shared_ptr< Service >  ptr )

inlinestatic

Sets or replaces a service.

Parameters

ptr	Service to use to replace the current one.
