Ice::ImplicitContext
Overview
local interface ImplicitContext
An interface to associate implict contexts with communicators. When you make a remote invocation without an explicit Ice::Context parameter, Ice uses the per-proxy Ice::Context (if any) combined with the ImplicitContext associated with the communicator.
Ice provides several implementations of ImplicitContext. The implementation used depends on the value of the Ice.ImplicitContext property.
None (default) — No implicit context at all.
PerThread — The implementation maintains a Ice::Context per thread.
Shared — The implementation maintains a single Ice::Context shared by all threads.
ImplicitContext also provides a number of operations to create, update or retrieve an entry in the underlying context without first retrieving a copy of the entire context. These operations correspond to a subset of the java.util.Map methods, with java.lang.Object replaced by string and null replaced by the empty-string.
Used By
Operation Index
getContext — Get a copy of the underlying context.
setContext — Set the underlying context.
containsKey — Check if this key has an associated value in the underlying context.
get — Get the value associated with the given key in the underlying context.
put — Create or update a key/value entry in the underlying context.
remove — Remove the entry for the given key in the underlying context.
Operations
Ice::Context getContext()
Get a copy of the underlying context.
Return Value
A copy of the underlying context.
void setContext(Ice::Context newContext)
Set the underlying context.
Parameters
newContext — The new context.
bool containsKey(string key)
Check if this key has an associated value in the underlying context.
Parameters
key — The key.
Return Value
True if the key has an associated value, False otherwise.
string get(string key)
Get the value associated with the given key in the underlying context. Returns an empty string if no value is associated with the key. containsKey allows you to distinguish between an empty-string value and no value at all.
Parameters
key — The key.
Return Value
The value associated with the key.
string put(string key, string value)
Create or update a key/value entry in the underlying context.
Parameters
key — The key.
value — The value.
Return Value
The previous value associated with the key, if any.
string remove(string key)
Remove the entry for the given key in the underlying context.
Parameters
key — The key.
Return Value
The value associated with the key, if any.
