Detailed Description

template<class T>
class Belle2::OptionalDBObjPtr< T >

Optional DBObjPtr: This class behaves the same as the DBObjPtr except that it will not raise errors when an object could not be found in the database.

Users are responsible to check the validity of the object before using it.

This is the same as using a DBObjPtr with full constructor arguments to specify whether it is optional but allows to use default constructor and gives a clearer intention to readers.

Member Function Documentation

◆ addCallback() [1/3]

void addCallback ( std::function< void()>  callback,
bool  onDestruction = false 
)
inlineinherited

Add a callback method.

The given method will be called whenever there is a new database entry for this DBAccessor.

Parameters
callbackfunction pointer to a callback function
onDestructionif true the callback will not be called for each change but only when the Database entry is deleted and can be used to remove dangling pointers to the entry.

Definition at line 118 of file DBAccessorBase.h.

◆ addCallback() [2/3]

void addCallback ( std::function< void(const std::string &)>  callback,
bool  onDestruction = false 
)
inlineinherited

Add a callback method.

The given method will be called whenever there is a new database entry for this DBAccessor. The one parameter is the name of the DB entry which changed (in case the same callback method is to be used for multiple payloads.

Parameters
callbackfunction pointer to a callback function
onDestructionif true the callback will not be called for each change but only when the Database entry is deleted and can be used to remove dangling pointers to the entry.

Definition at line 105 of file DBAccessorBase.h.

◆ addCallback() [3/3]

void addCallback ( T *  object,
void(T::*)()  callback 
)
inlineinherited

Add a callback method of an object.

The given method will be called whenever there is a new database entry for this DBAccessor.

Parameters
objectThe object with the callback method.
callbackThe callback method.

Definition at line 130 of file DBAccessorBase.h.

◆ ensureAttached()

bool ensureAttached ( ) const
inlineprotectedinherited

Make sure we are attached to the the DBStore.

If not try to reconnect

Definition at line 171 of file DBAccessorBase.h.

◆ getIntraRunBoundaries()

const std::vector<unsigned int> getIntraRunBoundaries ( ) const
inlineinherited

Get the intra-run boundaries, if any.

If the intra-run dependency is by event number, the event numbers used as boundaries are returned.

Definition at line 157 of file DBAccessorBase.h.

◆ isValid()

bool isValid ( ) const
inlineinherited

Check whether a valid object was obtained from the database.

Returns
True if the object exists.

Definition at line 72 of file DBAccessorBase.h.
