Together with Plug
, Socket
provides the ability to embed
accessibles from one process into another in a fashion that is
transparent to assistive technologies. Socket
works as the
container of Plug
, embedding it using the method
socketEmbed
. Any accessible contained in the Plug
will
appear to the assistive technologies as being inside the
application that created the Socket
.
The communication between a Socket
and a Plug
is done by
the IPC layer of the accessibility framework, normally implemented
by the D-Bus based implementation of AT-SPI (at-spi2). If that is
the case, at-spi-atk2 is the responsible to implement the abstract
methods plugGetId
and socketEmbed
, so an ATK
implementor shouldn't reimplement them. The process that contains
the Plug
is responsible to send the ID returned by
atk_plug_id()
to the process that contains the Socket
, so it
could call the method socketEmbed
in order to embed it.
For the same reasons, an implementor doesn't need to implement
objectGetNAccessibleChildren
and
objectRefAccessibleChild
. All the logic related to those
functions will be implemented by the IPC layer.

Methods
embed
:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsSocket a) | |
=> a |
|
-> Text |
|
-> m () |
Embeds the children of an Plug
as the children of the
Socket
. The plug may be in the same process or in a different
process.
The class item used by this function should be filled in by the IPC
layer (usually at-spi2-atk). The implementor of the AtkSocket
should call this function and pass the id for the plug as returned
by plugGetId
. It is the responsibility of the application
to pass the plug id on to the process implementing the Socket
as needed.

isOccupied
:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsSocket a) | |
=> a |
|
-> m Bool | Returns: TRUE if a plug is embedded in the socket |
Determines whether or not the socket has an embedded plug.
