Member Function Documentation

signal()

void Threads::ConditionVariable::signal ( )

inline

Signal to a single listener that a condition has been met, i.e. that some data will now be available.

Definition at line 361 of file thread_management.h.

broadcast()

void Threads::ConditionVariable::broadcast ( )

inline

Signal to multiple listener that a condition has been met, i.e. that some data will now be available.

Definition at line 370 of file thread_management.h.

wait()

void Threads::ConditionVariable::wait ( Mutex &  mutex )

inline

Wait for the condition to be signalled. Signal variables need to be guarded by a mutex which needs to be given to this function as an argument, see the man page of pthread_cond_wait for a description of the mechanisms.

The mutex is assumed held at the entry to this function but is released upon exit.
