NAME

Tangence::Registry - object manager for a Tangence server

DESCRIPTION

This subclass of Tangence::Object acts as a container for all the exposed objects in a Tangence server. The registry is used to create exposed objects, and manages their lifetime. It maintains a reference to all the objects it creates, so it can dispatch incoming messages from clients to them.

CONSTRUCTOR

new

$registry = Tangence::Registry->new;

Returns a new instance of a Tangence::Registry object. An entire server requires one registry object; it will be shared among all the client connections to that server.

METHODS

get_by_id

$obj = $registry->get_by_id( $id );

Returns the object with the given object ID.

This method is exposed to clients.

construct

$obj = $registry->construct( $type, @args );

Constructs a new exposed object of the given type, and returns it. Any additional arguments are passed to the object's constructor.

load_tanfile

$registry->load_tanfile( $tanfile );

Loads additional Tangence class and struct definitions from the given .tan file.
