Detailed Description

Base class for all events in the actor system.

Event provides the base functionality for event identification, routing, and quality of service. It is the foundation for all event types in the actor system.

Member Function Documentation

type_to_id()

template<typename T>

constexpr id_type qb::Event::type_to_id ( )

inlinestaticnodiscardconstexpr

Get the type identifier at runtime.

Template Parameters

T	Type to get the ID for

Returns

Type identifier as string for the specified type

is_alive()

bool qb::Event::is_alive ( ) const

inlinenodiscardnoexcept

Check if the event is still alive and can be processed.

Returns

true if the event is alive and ready for processing, false otherwise

getID()

id_type qb::Event::getID ( ) const

inlinenodiscardnoexcept

Get the event's type ID for event routing and handling.

Returns

Type identifier of this event

getQOS()

uint8_t qb::Event::getQOS ( ) const

inlinenodiscardnoexcept

Get the event's quality of service level.

Returns

QoS level (0-2) where higher values indicate higher priority

getDestination()

id_handler_type qb::Event::getDestination ( ) const

inlinenodiscardnoexcept

Get the destination actor ID.

Returns

ID of the destination actor that should receive this event

getSource()

id_handler_type qb::Event::getSource ( ) const

inlinenodiscardnoexcept

Get the source actor ID.

Returns

ID of the source actor that sent this event

getSize()

std::size_t qb::Event::getSize ( ) const

inlinenodiscardnoexcept

Get the size of the event in bytes.

Returns

Total size of the event in memory
