31 * @todo Use objectpool by deriving classes from class poolobject and
32 * linking executables against objectpool.o or including objectpool.o into
33 * libie.a.
34 *
35 * This header file defines the base class of all information elements, the
36 * information elements for the protocol and an IE manager object.
37 *
38 * For performance only pointers are exchanged. The copy member function is
39 * the way to duplicate an IE. It does much the same as a copy constructor
40 * but returns not the IE but a pointer to it. If the IE contains pointers,
41 * their target objects are copied too.

411/**
412 * A registry and factory for IEs.
413 *
414 * Each IE has to register at the IE Manager. The IEManager then provides
415 * methods to deserialize IEs from or serialize IEs to a NetMsg object.
416 * IEManager is abstract and thus can't be instantiated.
417 *
418 * In contrast to earlier implementations, IEManager itself is no longer a
419 * singleton. Inheriting from singletons is a tricky business in C++ (and
420 * much easier in Java) because static methods can't be virtual. Because
421 * of this, multiple badly implemented child classes were unable to coexist
422 * in a single program.
423 *
424 * The following has to be done in each protocol to use IEManager and
425 * create a protocol-specific singleton (called PROT_IEManager):
426 *
427 * - Inherit from IEManager.
428 * - Make the constructor private.
429 * - Provide a "private: static PROT_IEManager *inst" attribute.
430 * - Provide a "public: static PROT_IEManager *instance()" method.
431 * - Provide a "public: static void clear()" method.
432 * - Define your own category_t with categories appropriate for your protocol.
433 *
434 * An example implementation can be found in the QSPEC code. Please note that
435 * old code (r286 and earlier) won't compile because of interface changes.
436 * The ability to register "default" IEs that are returned if no more specific
437 * IE is found has been removed because it depended on coding_t. If derived
438 * IEManagers need this functionality, they have to override lookup_ie().
