Detailed Description

Root/Null issue stream.

Root issue stream. An ERS stream is a mean to send and receive issues. The two core method to do so are send and receive. Certain subclasses of stream might implement only sending, or only receiving. The root stream class implements a null stream, i.e a stream where no issue can be read from and silently discards sent issues.

receive()

ers::Issue * ers::Stream::receive ( )

Receives an issue from the stream.

Reads an isssue on the stream

Returns

the issue that has been read

Note

This implementation always returns a null pointer

    return 0 ; 
} // receive

send()

void ers::Stream::send ( const Issue * i )

virtual

Sends an issue into the stream.

Sends the issue to the stream.

Parameters

i	the issue to send

Note

This implementation silently discards the Issue

Reimplemented in ers::DefaultStream, ers::FIFOStream, ers::FilterStream, and ers::HumanStream.
