Blueprint changed by Rick Stovall: Whiteboard changed: The new circular_queue template class will in the nrtb_common lib and will provide the following interface: - constructor and destructor - push // put in the queue - pull // get from the queue - park // blocks the calling thread until there is data to be processed, returns a queue item. - clear // clears the queue - resize // sets the queue size - size // returns the number of elements in the queue. + constructor and destructor + push // put in the queue + pull // get from the queue + park // blocks the calling thread until there is data to be processed, returns a queue item. + clear // clears the queue + resize // sets the queue size + size // returns the number of elements in the queue. + + Also include a linear_queue template which has the same interface as + above without the resize method. The linear queue is a bit slower, but + will expand as needed to handle the load. + + Circular queue is best suited for tight, high speed links between + threads where you can reasonably predict the high-water marks, while + linear queue is better suited where speed is less important and the + queue may need to grow.
