class constructor.
Syntax | Description |
---|---|
Listener( const Connection* conn); |
Creates a Listener object. |
Listener( const Connection* conn vector<Agent> &aglist, int waitTime=0); |

Parameter | Description |

Listens for Message
s on behalf of specified Agent
s for the amount of time specified by a previous setTimeOutForListen() call. Returns the Agent
for which there is a Message

This is a blocking call. Prior to this call, complete the following steps:Registers each Agent listener through a setAgentList() call.
Make a blocking call to setTimeOutForListen() that will return when a Message
for one of the Agent
s on the list arrives. If no Message
s arrive before the wait time expires, the call returns an error.
Specifies the list of Agent
s for which the Listener
