Methods

Name	Description
ISpace.Get(IPattern)	Retrieves and removes the first tuple from the ISpace, matching the specified pattern. The operation will block if no elements match.
ISpace.Get(object[])	Retrieves and removes the first tuple from the ISpace, matching the specified pattern. The operation will block if no elements match.
ISpace.GetP(IPattern)	Retrieves and removes the first tuple from the ISpace, matching the specified pattern. The operation is non-blocking. The operation will return null if no elements match.
ISpace.GetP(object[])	Retrieves and removes the first tuple from the ISpace, matching the specified pattern. The operation is non-blocking. The operation will return null if no elements match.
ISpace.GetAll(IPattern)	Retrieves and removes all tuples from the ISpace matching the specified pattern. The operation is non-blocking. The operation will return an empty set if no elements match.
ISpace.GetAll(object[])	Retrieves and removes all tuples from the ISpace matching the specified pattern. The operation is non-blocking. The operation will return an empty set if no elements match.
ISpace.Query(IPattern)	Retrieves the first tuple from the ISpace, matching the specified pattern. The operation will block if no elements match.
ISpace.Query(object[])	Retrieves the first tuple from the ISpace, matching the specified pattern. The operation will block if no elements match.
ISpace.QueryP(IPattern)	Retrieves the first tuple from the ISpace, matching the specified pattern. The operation is non-blocking. The operation will return null if no elements match.
ISpace.QueryP(object[])	Retrieves the first tuple from the ISpace, matching the specified pattern. The operation is non-blocking. The operation will return null if no elements match.
ISpace.QueryAll(IPattern)	Retrieves all tuples from the ISpace matching the specified pattern. The operation is non-blocking. The operation will return an empty set if no elements match.
ISpace.QueryAll(object[])	Retrieves all tuples from the ISpace matching the specified pattern. The operation is non-blocking. The operation will return an empty set if no elements match.
ISpace.Put(ITuple)	Inserts the tuple passed as argument into the ISpace.
ISpace.Put(object[])	Inserts the tuple passed as argument into the ISpace.

Remarks

The Space class is a threadsafe data structure. It implements the ISpace interface.

You can add tuples to a Space by using the Put methods. Conversely, tuples can be fetched through Query,QueryP, QueryAll, Get, GetP and GetAll.


Please note that all variants of the Get operations not only fetches the tuple(s), but also removes them from the space.
