29 * The control class for HLTOUT data.
30 * The output of the HLT, either from the HLTOUT nodes or simulated output,
31 * is transferred and stored in the HOMER format. The AliHLTOUT class
32 * implements scanning of the HOMER data for all HLTOUT DDL links and
33 * abstracts access to the complete HLTOUT data.
36 class AliHLTOUT : public AliHLTLogging {
38 /** standard constructor */
40 /** standard destructor */
44 * Init for processing.
45 * The HLTOUT is scanned for all available data blocks and the
46 * AliHLTOUTHandler objects for the data blocks are created according
47 * to the module agents (see AliHLTModuleAgent).
52 * Get number of data blocks in the HLTOUT data
54 int GetNofDataBlocks();
57 * Select the first data block of a certain data type and specification.
58 * The selection criteria can be of kAliHLTAnyDataType and/or
59 * kAliHLTVoidDataSpec in order to be ignored and just match any data block.
61 * The search criteria can be combined with a handler type (e.g. kRawReader)
62 * @param dt [in] data type to match <br>
63 * @param spec [in] data specification to match <br>
64 * @param handlerType [in] type of the handler
65 * @return identifier >0 if success, 0 if no block found <br>
66 * neg. error code if failed <br>
67 * -EPERM if access denied (object locked)
69 int SelectFirstDataBlock(AliHLTComponentDataType dt, AliHLTUInt32_t spec,
70 AliHLTModuleAgent::AliHLTOUTHandlerType handlerType=AliHLTModuleAgent::kUnknownOutput);
73 * Select the next data block of data type and specification of the previous
74 * call to @ref SelectFirstDataBlock.
75 * @return identifier >0 if success, 0 if no block found <br>
76 * neg. error code if failed <br>
77 * -EPERM if access denied (object locked)
79 int SelectNextDataBlock();
82 * Get properties of the selected data block.
83 * @param dt [out] data type of the selected block
84 * @param spec [out] data specification of the selected block
86 int GetDataBlockDescription(AliHLTComponentDataType& dt, AliHLTUInt32_t& spec);
89 * Get the index of the current data block.
90 * @return index, AliHLTOUTInvalidIndex if no block selected
92 AliHLTUInt32_t GetDataBlockIndex();
95 * Get buffer of the selected data block.
96 * @param pBuffer [out] buffer of the selected data block
97 * @param size [out] size of the selected data block
99 int GetDataBuffer(const AliHLTUInt8_t* &pBuffer, AliHLTUInt32_t& size);
102 * Release buffer after use.
103 * @param pBuffer [in] buffer of the selected data block
105 int ReleaseDataBuffer(const AliHLTUInt8_t* pBuffer);
108 * Locking guard for the AliHLTOUT object.
109 * If the object is locked, the selection of data blocks can not be changed.
