Procédure pas à pas : Créer un type de bloc de flux de données personnalisé

Bien que la bibliothèque de flux de données TPL fournisse plusieurs types de blocs de flux de données offrant une large gamme de fonctionnalités, vous pouvez aussi créer des types de blocs personnalisés. Ce document décrit comment créer un type de bloc de flux de données qui implémente un comportement personnalisé.

Prérequis

Consultez Flux de données avant de lire ce document.

Notes

La bibliothèque de flux de données TPL (espace de noms System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow) n'est pas distribuée avec .NET. Pour installer l’espace de noms System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow dans Visual Studio, ouvrez votre projet, choisissez Gérer les packages NuGet dans le menu Projet, puis recherchez en ligne le package System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow. Vous pouvez également l’installer à l’aide de l’interface CLI .NET Core en exécutant dotnet add package System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow.

Définition du bloc de flux de données d’une fenêtre coulissante

Imaginez une application de flux de données qui exige que les valeurs d’entrée soient mises en mémoire tampon, puis affichées sous la forme d’une fenêtre coulissante. Par exemple, pour les valeurs d’entrée {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5} et une taille de fenêtre de 3, un bloc de flux de données de fenêtre coulissante génère les tableaux de sortie {0, 1, 2}, {1, 2, 3}, {2, 3, 4,} et {3, 4, 5}. Les sections suivantes décrivent deux façons de créer un type de bloc de flux de données qui implémente ce comportement personnalisé. La première technique utilise la méthode Encapsulate pour combiner la fonctionnalité d’un objet ISourceBlock<TOutput> et d’un objet ITargetBlock<TInput> dans un bloc propagateur. La seconde technique définit une classe dérivée de IPropagatorBlock<TInput,TOutput> et combine la fonctionnalité existante pour générer le comportement personnalisé.

Utilisation de la méthode d’encapsulage pour définir le bloc de flux d’une fenêtre coulissante

L’exemple suivant utilise la méthode Encapsulate pour créer un bloc propagateur à partir d’une source et d’une cible. Un bloc propagateur permet à un bloc source et à un bloc cible d’agir en tant que destinataire et expéditeur des données.

Cette technique est utile lorsque vous avez besoin d’une fonctionnalité de flux de données personnalisée, mais pas d’un type qui fournit d’autres méthodes, propriétés ou champs.

// Creates a IPropagatorBlock<T, T[]> object propagates data in a
// sliding window fashion.
public static IPropagatorBlock<T, T[]> CreateSlidingWindow<T>(int windowSize)
{
   // Create a queue to hold messages.
   var queue = new Queue<T>();

   // The source part of the propagator holds arrays of size windowSize
   // and propagates data out to any connected targets.
   var source = new BufferBlock<T[]>();

   // The target part receives data and adds them to the queue.
   var target = new ActionBlock<T>(item =>
   {
      // Add the item to the queue.
      queue.Enqueue(item);
      // Remove the oldest item when the queue size exceeds the window size.
      if (queue.Count > windowSize)
         queue.Dequeue();
      // Post the data in the queue to the source block when the queue size
      // equals the window size.
      if (queue.Count == windowSize)
         source.Post(queue.ToArray());
   });

End Function

Dérivation d’IPropagatorBlock pour définir le bloc de flux de données d’une fenêtre coulissante

L’exemple suivant montre la classe SlidingWindowBlock. Cette classe est dérivée IPropagatorBlock<TInput,TOutput> pour pouvoir agir à la fois comme une source et une cible de données. Comme dans l’exemple précédent, la classe SlidingWindowBlock s’appuie sur des types de blocs de flux de données existants. Cependant, la classe SlidingWindowBlock implémente également les méthodes requises par les interfaces ISourceBlock<TOutput>, ITargetBlock<TInput> et IDataflowBlock. Toutes ces méthodes transfèrent le travail aux membres du type de bloc de flux de données prédéfini. Par exemple, la méthode Post transmet le travail au membre de données m_target, qui est également un objet ITargetBlock<TInput>.

Cette technique est utile lorsque vous avez besoin d’une fonctionnalité de flux de données personnalisée, mais également d’un type qui fournit d’autres méthodes, propriétés ou champs. Par exemple, la classe SlidingWindowBlock est également dérivée de IReceivableSourceBlock<TOutput> afin de fournir les méthodes TryReceive et TryReceiveAll. La classe SlidingWindowBlock apporte également une extensibilité en fournissant la propriété WindowSize, qui récupère le nombre d’éléments dans la fenêtre coulissante.

// Propagates data in a sliding window fashion.
public class SlidingWindowBlock<T> : IPropagatorBlock<T, T[]>,
                                     IReceivableSourceBlock<T[]>

   // Constructs a SlidingWindowBlock object.
   public SlidingWindowBlock(int windowSize)
   {
      // Create a queue to hold messages.
      var queue = new Queue<T>();

      // The source part of the propagator holds arrays of size windowSize
      // and propagates data out to any connected targets.
      var source = new BufferBlock<T[]>();

      // The target part receives data and adds them to the queue.
      var target = new ActionBlock<T>(item =>
      {
         // Add the item to the queue.
         queue.Enqueue(item);
         // Remove the oldest item when the queue size exceeds the window size.
         if (queue.Count > windowSize)
            queue.Dequeue();
