Almost rewrote LinkMsgSender; it's now much cleaner and works better: - StartMessage() can now get a size to make sure there is enough free space - if StartMessage() is called with the current message behind a certain watermark, the buffer is flushed in order to prevent moving around messages in the buffer. The actual value should be tested in real life, though. - enlarged maximum buffer size to 64k - fixed bug: could use memcpy() to move overlapping memory around - added a flag to Flush() that marks messages as needing a reply - the other way would be to mark the message "code" to contain this information Some cleanup in LinkMsgReader. BPortLink now has most methods as inlines. The buffer sizes are now declared in a shared header, so that receiver and sender are always equipped equally. git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@12997 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96 2005-06-07 22:36:03 +00:00			`/*`
Removed unused files like PortMessage.cpp/h and Session.cpp/h. Renamed LinkMsgReceiver.h and LinkMsgSender.h to LinkReceiver.h and LinkSender.h like the classes they contain.

Added the alternate ReadString() method to ServerLink as well. Minor cleanup. git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@14615 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96 2005-11-01 15:43:38 +00:00

PortLink now uses a fixed buffer. Its base class is.... BSession... git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@4424 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96 2003-08-31 17:21:49 +00:00
Major API improvements by Pahtz git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@8518 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96 2004-07-30 15:10:19 +00:00
Renamed BAppServerLink to AppServerLink, BPortLink to PortLink, LinkMsgReader to LinkReceiver, LinkMsgSender to LinkSender, and put everything into the BPrivate namespace. Made AppServerLink a cheap object - it will use the applications receiver/sender and not create its own buffers. Fixed broken communication stuff here and there (mostly Font.cpp). Put the newly introduced set\|get_system_colors() into the BPrivate namespace - please don't introduce private functions into the public namespace!!! Also fixed their broken communication use, as Darkwyrm obviously forgot about it again: the sequence Flush(); GetNextMessage() without error checking is purely wrong and can make the app hang and/or crash! :-) Other minor cleanup. The input_server used some test mode with the haiku build target which is probably wrong. Hopefully I did not forget anything this time. git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@13128 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96 2005-06-14 21:28:56 +00:00			`namespace BPrivate {`
BSession is no longer a parent class Removal of deprecated reply functions Global protocol change - reply port is at the end of data, not the beginning PortLink still uses the BSession messaging style git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@4933 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96 2003-10-03 22:20:28 +00:00
