| /* An observer is an entity who is interested in being notified when GDB |
| reaches certain states, or certain events occur in GDB. The entity being |
| observed is called the Subject. To receive notifications, the observer |
| attaches a callback to the subject. One subject can have several |
| observers. |
| |
| This file implements an internal generic low-level event notification |
| mechanism based on the Observer paradigm described in the book "Design |
| Patterns". This generic event notification mechansim is then re-used |
| to implement the exported high-level notification management routines |
| for all possible notifications. |
| |
| The current implementation of the generic observer provides support |
| for contextual data. This contextual data is given to the subject |
| when attaching the callback. In return, the subject will provide |
| this contextual data back to the observer as a parameter of the |
| callback. |
| |
| FIXME: The current support for the contextual data is only partial, |
| as it lacks a mechanism that would deallocate this data when the |
| callback is detached. This is not a problem so far, as this contextual |
| data is only used internally to hold a function pointer. Later on, |
| if a certain observer needs to provide support for user-level |
| contextual data, then the generic notification mechanism will need |
| need to be enhanced to allow the observer to provide a routine to |
| deallocate the data when attaching the callback. |
| |
| This file is currently maintained by hand, but the long term plan |
| if the number of different notifications starts growing is to create |
| a new script (observer.sh) that would generate this file, and the |
| associated documentation. */ |
