Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Server()

Cutelyst::Server::Server ( QObject parent = nullptr)
explicit
Note
When on Linux the constructor will try install our EPoll event loop, so creating this class must be done before creating a QCoreApplition or any of it's subclasses.
Parameters
parent

Member Function Documentation

◆ errorOccured

void Cutelyst::Server::errorOccured ( const QString error)
signal

It is emitted once error occurs.

◆ exec()

int Cutelyst::Server::exec ( Cutelyst::Application app = nullptr)

This function will start the WSGI server.

If an application is provided it will ignore the value of setApplication and/or the Application configuration in case Ini is set, meaning it won't dynamically load an Application but use this to create new instances (if the app constructor is marked as Q_INVOKABLE and threads settings are greater than 1).

It will return 0 in case of sucess.

Note
This method calls QCoreApplication::exec() internally, this is needed because when creating or recreating child process the event loop must not be running otherwise we get undefined behavior. So exit main after this function.
This method does not take ownership of application \pa appp

◆ ready

void Cutelyst::Server::ready ( )
signal

It is emitted once the server is ready.

◆ start()

bool Cutelyst::Server::start ( Cutelyst::Application app = nullptr)

Use this when you would like to embed the server in an application that is able to start/stop the server at will, for example with a push button.

This method does not support forking which includes master, lazy or processes properties.

New application instances will be created if the app constructor is marked as Q_INVOKABLE and threads settings are greater than 1.

Note
This method does not take ownership of application \pa appp

◆ stopped

void Cutelyst::Server::stopped ( )
signal

It is emitted once the server shutdown is completed.
