A renderer class object (conceptually) /// manages the positions of names rendered in some sort of buffer and uses /// that information to render subsequent names with compression. /// /// A renderer class is mainly intended to be used as a helper for a more /// comprehensive \c Message class internally; normal applications won't have /// to care about details of this class. /// /// By default any (derived) renderer class object is associated with /// an internal buffer, and subsequent write operations will be performed /// on that buffer. The rendering result can be retrieved via the /// \c getData() method. /// /// If an application wants a separate buffer can be (normally temporarily) /// set for rendering operations via the \c setBuffer() method. In that case, /// it is generally expected that all rendering operations are performed via /// that object. If the application modifies the buffer in /// parallel with the renderer, the result will be undefined. /// /// Note to developers: we introduced a separate class for name compression /// because previous benchmark with BIND9 showed compression affects overall /// response performance very much. By having a separate class dedicated for /// this purpose, we'll be able to change the internal implementation of name /// compression in the future without affecting other part of the API and /// implementation. /// /// In addition, by introducing a class hierarchy from /// \c AbstractMessageRenderer, we allow an application to use a customized /// renderer class for specific purposes. For example, a high performance /// DNS server may want to use an optimized renderer class assuming some /// specific underlying data representation. /// /// \note Some functions (like writeUint8) are not virtual. It is because /// it is hard to imagine any version of message renderer that would /// do anything else than just putting the data into a buffer, so we /// provide a default implementation and having them virtual would only /// hurt the performance with no real gain. If it would happen a different /// implementation is really needed, we can make them virtual in future. /// The only one that is virtual is writeName and it's because this /// function is much more complicated, therefore there's a lot of space /// for different implementations or different behavior. class AbstractMessageRenderer { public: /// \brief Compression mode constants. /// /// The \c CompressMode enum type represents the name compression mode /// for renderer classes. /// \c CASE_INSENSITIVE means compress names in case-insensitive manner; /// \c CASE_SENSITIVE means compress names in case-sensitive manner. /// By default, a renderer compresses names in case-insensitive /// manner. /// Compression mode can be dynamically modified by the /// \c setCompressMode() method. /// The mode can be changed even in the middle of rendering, although this /// is not an intended usage.
