0. 概要

对于C++应用编程，定时器模块是一个至关重要的组件。为了确保系统的可靠性和功能安全，我们需要设计一个高效、稳定的定时器。
本文将实现一个跨平台安全的C++ SafeTimer 定时器模块，并提供完整的gtest单元测试。

1. 设计目标

目标是创建一个符合功能安全要求的定时器模块，具体包括以下几点：

线程安全：确保多线程环境下的安全性。
高可靠性：在异常情况下能够安全地停止定时器。
高可维护性：代码结构清晰，易于扩展和维护。

2. `SafeTimer` 类的实现

SafeTimer 类是我们实现的核心，它提供了单次触发（SingleShot）和重复触发（Repeat）两种定时功能，同时还支持暂停（Pause）和恢复（Resume）。以下是 SafeTimer 类的完整实现。

2.1 头文件 `safe_timer.h`

}void SafeTimer::DestroyThread() noexcept {if (thread_) {{std::lock_guard<std::mutex> lock(mutex_);condition_.notify_all();}if (thread_->joinable()) {thread_->join();}thread_.reset();}
}

3. 工作流程图

这个流程图分别展示了 SingleShot 和 Repeat 的流程，同时包括了暂停、恢复和取消操作。

4. 单元测试

为了验证 SafeTimer 的功能，我们编写了一组单元测试，覆盖了定时器的各种使用场景，包括单次触发、重复触发、暂停、恢复和取消等功能。

#include <gtest/gtest.h>#include <chrono>
#include <thread>#include "safe_timer.h"class CallbackMock {public:MOCK_METHOD(void, CallbackMethod, ());
};class SafeTimerTest : public testing::Test {protected:CallbackMock callback_mock;void SetUp() override {// Do nothing now}void TearDown() override {// Do nothing now}

}TEST_F(SafeTimerTest, Cancel) {SafeTimer timer("Cancel");int repeat_count = 3;  // Number of times repeat should executeint time_ms = 500;  // Delay time in millisecondsEXPECT_CALL(callback_mock, CallbackMethod()).Times(repeat_count - 1);// Execute once immediatelyauto ret = timer.Repeat(time_ms, true, &CallbackMock::CallbackMethod, &callback_mock);EXPECT_TRUE(ret);// Sleep for 100ms less to ensure cancel is called in timestd::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::milliseconds((repeat_count - 1) * time_ms - 100));timer.Cancel();
}// Test if cancelling immediately after timer creation causes any issues
// Expected: Cancelling immediately after timer creation should directly return and perform no operation
TEST_F(SafeTimerTest, CancelBeforeSingleShot) {SafeTimer timer("TestCancelBeforeSingleShot");EXPECT_CALL(callback_mock, CallbackMethod()).Times(1);timer.Cancel();int time_ms = 100;  // Delay time in millisecondsauto ret = timer.SingleShot(time_ms, &CallbackMock::CallbackMethod, &callback_mock);EXPECT_TRUE(ret);// Sleep for an additional 100ms to ensure executionstd::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::milliseconds(time_ms + 100));
}// Test if cancelling immediately after creating a SingleShot timer causes any issues
// Expected: Properly cancel without issues
TEST_F(SafeTimerTest, CancelImmediatelyAfterSingleShot) {SafeTimer timer("TestCancelImmediatelyAfterSingleShot");EXPECT_CALL(callback_mock, CallbackMethod()).Times(0);int time_ms = 100;  // Delay time in millisecondstimer.SingleShot(time_ms, &CallbackMock::CallbackMethod, &callback_mock);timer.Cancel();// Sleep for an additional 100ms to ensure callback is not calledstd::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::milliseconds(time_ms + 100));
}TEST_F(SafeTimerTest, CancelAfterSingleShot) {SafeTimer timer("TestCancelAfterSingleShot");EXPECT_CALL(callback_mock, CallbackMethod()).Times(1);int time_ms = 100;  // Delay time in millisecondsauto ret = timer.SingleShot(time_ms, &CallbackMock::CallbackMethod, &callback_mock);EXPECT_TRUE(ret);// Sleep for an additional 100ms to ensure executionstd::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::milliseconds(time_ms + 100));timer.Cancel();
}TEST_F(SafeTimerTest, Pause) {SafeTimer timer("Pause");int repeat_count = 2;  // Number of times repeat should executeint time_ms = 500;  // Delay time in millisecondsEXPECT_CALL(callback_mock, CallbackMethod()).Times(repeat_count - 1);// Execute once immediatelytimer.Repeat(time_ms, true, &CallbackMock::CallbackMethod, &callback_mock);// Sleep for 100ms less to ensure pause is called in timestd::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::milliseconds((repeat_count - 1) * time_ms - 100));auto ret = timer.Pause();EXPECT_TRUE(ret);
}TEST_F(SafeTimerTest, Resume) {SafeTimer timer("Resume");int repeat_count = 3;  // Number of times repeat should executeint time_ms = 100;  // Delay time in millisecondsEXPECT_CALL(callback_mock, CallbackMethod()).Times(repeat_count);// Execute once immediatelytimer.Repeat(time_ms, true, &CallbackMock::CallbackMethod, &callback_mock);int time_advance_pause = 50;  // Time in milliseconds to pause in advance// Sleep for time_advance_pause ms less to ensure pause is called in timestd::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::milliseconds((repeat_count - 1) * time_ms - time_advance_pause));timer.Pause();timer.Resume();// Sleep for an additional 100ms to ensure timer execution is completedstd::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::milliseconds(time_advance_pause + 100));
}int main(int argc, char** argv) {testing::InitGoogleMock(&argc, argv);return RUN_ALL_TESTS();
}

以上代码是使用Google Test和Google Mock进行单元测试，以下是几项要点：

单次触发测试：
- SingleShot测试了SafeTimer在设定的延时后只触发一次CallbackMethod。
重复触发测试：
- RepeatWithParamCallImmediately测试了计时器立即执行并重复触发回调的功能。
- RepeatWithoutParamCallImmediately测试了计时器不立即执行，仅按照设定间隔重复触发回调的功能。
取消计时器测试：
- Cancel测试了在计时器执行过程中取消操作是否有效。
- CancelBeforeSingleShot测试了在单次触发计时器创建后立即取消是否有效。
- CancelImmediatelyAfterSingleShot测试了在单次触发计时器执行前立即取消的效果。
- CancelAfterSingleShot测试了在单次触发计时器执行后再取消的效果。
暂停与恢复计时器测试：
- Pause测试了暂停计时器的功能。
- Resume测试了暂停后恢复计时器的功能。

每个测试都使用EXPECT_CALL设置了预期的回调调用次数，并在适当的延时时间后检查回调是否按预期执行。

执行结果：
