The wait group gets passed to HttpServerConnection, then down to the
HttpHandlers. For those handlers that modify the program state, the
wait group is locked so ApiListener will wait on Stop() for the
request to complete. If the request iterates over config objects,
a further check on the state of the wait group is added to abort early
and not delay program shutdown. In that case, 503 responses will be
sent to the client.
Additionally, in HttpServerConnection, no further requests than the
one already started will be allowed once the wait group is joining.
for (const T& needle : haystack) creates the illusion that haystack is a
container of T and we're just borrowing needle. In these cases that's not true.
This commit removes EmbeddedNamespaceValue and ConstEmbeddedNamespaceValue and
reduces NamespaceValue down to a simple struct without inheritance or member
functions. The code from these clases is inlined into the Namespace class. The
class hierarchy determining whether a value is const is moved to an attribute
of NamespaceValue.
This is done in preparation for changes to the locking in the Namespace class.
Currently, it relies on a recursive mutex. In the future, a shared mutex
(read/write lock) should be used instead, which cannot allow recursive locking
(without failing or risk deadlocking on lock upgrades). With this change, all
operations requiring a lock for one operation are within one function, no
recursive locking is not needed any more.
What does this change?
* Remove use of spaces for formatting
These could be found by using `grep -r -l -P '^\t+ +[^*]'
* Removal of training whitespaces
* A few lines longer than 120 chars
