基类函数的this指针和派生类函数的this指针

在研究live555流程代码时，因为遇到对于基类RTSPServer在函数createNewClientConnection中，创建RTSPClientConnection时，采用的是new RTSPClientConnection(*this, clientSocket, clientAddr)方法创建的RTSPClientConnection，而在live media server中DynamicRTSPServer继承自RTSPServer，而主程序中只创建了DynamicRTSPServer对象；百思不得解，在此处创建RTSPClientConnection时，给其传递的是this指针的内容，而在其构造函数中，代码如下：

RTSPServer::RTSPClientConnection
::RTSPClientConnection(RTSPServer& ourServer, int clientSocket, struct sockaddr_in clientAddr)
  : fOurServer(ourServer), fIsActive(True),
    fClientInputSocket(clientSocket), fClientOutputSocket(clientSocket), fClientAddr(clientAddr),
    fRecursionCount(0), fOurSessionCookie(NULL) {
  // Add ourself to our 'client connections' table:
  fOurServer.fClientConnections->Add((char const*)this, this);

  // Arrange to handle incoming requests:
  resetRequestBuffer();
  envir().taskScheduler().setBackgroundHandling(fClientInputSocket, SOCKET_READABLE|SOCKET_EXCEPTION,
						(TaskScheduler::BackgroundHandlerProc*)&incomingRequestHandler, this);
}

this指针的传递和构造函数的初始化列表都显示fOurServer赋值为RTSPServer的this指针，而在handleCmd_DESCRIBE函数中

ServerMediaSession* session = fOurServer.lookupServerMediaSession(urlTotalSuffix);

的调用为什么能够调到DynamicRTSPServer::lookupServerMediaSession(char const* streamName)函数呢，在此不得以对this指针在基类和派生类的赋值进行了研究，结论表明：在派生类继承基类的时候，派生类初始化的时候调用基类的构造函数，随后调用派生类的构造函数，基类构造函数的this指针指向的是派生类对象，因为其this指针的值和派生类this指针的值相同，一下为我自己写的测试代码：

//MyTest.h文件
#ifndef _MY_TEST_H
#define _MY_TEST_H

class BaseTest{
public:
	BaseTest(int fun);
	virtual ~BaseTest();

	static BaseTest* CreateNew(int fun);
	void show();

	virtual void getInfo();
private:
	int num;
};

class DeriveTest: public BaseTest{
public:
	DeriveTest(int num, int func);
	virtual ~DeriveTest();

	static DeriveTest* CreateNew(int num,int func);
	void show();
	virtual void getInfo();
private:
	int fun;
};

#endif

//MyTest.cpp文件
#include <iostream>
#include "MyTest.h"

using namespace std;

BaseTest::BaseTest(int num)
:num(num)
{
	cout<<"the point base is:"<<this<<endl;
}

BaseTest::~BaseTest()
{
}

BaseTest* BaseTest::CreateNew(int num)
{
	return new BaseTest(num);
}

void BaseTest::show()
{
	cout<<"this is BaseTest!"<<endl;
	getInfo();
}

void BaseTest::getInfo()
{
	cout<<"the point is:"<<this<<endl;
}

DeriveTest::DeriveTest(int num, int func)
:BaseTest(num),fun(func)
{
	cout<<"the point derive is:"<<this<<endl;
}

DeriveTest::~DeriveTest()
{
}

DeriveTest* DeriveTest::CreateNew(int num, int func)
{
	return new DeriveTest(num, func);
}

void DeriveTest::show()
{
	cout<<"this is DeriveTest!"<<endl;
}

void DeriveTest::getInfo()
{
	cout<<"the point1 is:"<<this<<endl;
}

 

//测试main函数文件
#include "MyTest.h"

int main()
{
	int num = 5;
	int fun = 10;

	BaseTest *myTest = DeriveTest::CreateNew(5,10);

	return 0;
}

测试结果显示为：

the point base is:00032BC8
the point derive is:00032BC8

通过剪短的测试，明白了在初始化时赋值的this指针的作用，也明白了live555在内部调用和设计的复杂性，加油，得进一步努力分析代码了。
