4. 异步通知

4.1 NotificationQueue类

         Poco中的异步通知是通过NotificationQueue类来实现的，同它功能类似还有类PriorityNotificationQueue和TimedNotificationQueue。不同的是PriorityNotificationQueue类中对消息分了优先级，对优先级高的消息优先处理；而TimedNotificationQueue对消息给了时间戳，时间戳早的优先处理，而和其压入队列的时间无关。所以接下来我们主要关注NotificationQueue的实现。
        事实上NotificationQueue是个非常有趣的类。让我们来看一下它的头文件：

class Foundation_API NotificationQueue
	/// A NotificationQueue object provides a way to implement asynchronous
	/// notifications. This is especially useful for sending notifications
	/// from one thread to another, for example from a background thread to 
	/// the main (user interface) thread. 
	/// 
	/// The NotificationQueue can also be used to distribute work from
	/// a controlling thread to one or more worker threads. Each worker thread
	/// repeatedly calls waitDequeueNotification() and processes the
	/// returned notification. Special care must be taken when shutting
	/// down a queue with worker threads waiting for notifications.
	/// The recommended sequence to shut down and destroy the queue is to
	///   1. set a termination flag for every worker thread
	///   2. call the wakeUpAll() method
	///   3. join each worker thread
	///   4. destroy the notification queue.
{
public:
	NotificationQueue();
		/// Creates the NotificationQueue.

	~NotificationQueue();
		/// Destroys the NotificationQueue.

	void enqueueNotification(Notification::Ptr pNotification);
		/// Enqueues the given notification by adding it to
		/// the end of the queue (FIFO).
		/// The queue takes ownership of the notification, thus
		/// a call like
		///     notificationQueue.e
