dlr::thread Namespace Reference

This namespace provides some high level multi-threaded programming abstractions such as shared FIFOs and monitor objects so that the user doesn't have to think at the level of locks and mutexes. More...

Classes
class	BroadcastQueue
	This class implements FIFO-style communication between one or more producer threads and multiple consumer threads, so that each consumer thread receives a copy of each item pushed into the queue. More...
class	ClientID
	This class is used to identify individual threads to individual BroadcastQueue instances. More...
class	DataQueue
class	DistributionQueue
	This class implements FIFO-style communication between one or more producer threads and multiple consumer threads, so that each queue item is consumed by exactly one thread. More...
class	OverflowException
	This Exception class is thrown when a DataQueue consumer falls too far behind the head of the queue, causing the queue to "overflow.". More...
class	SyncException
	This Exception class can be used by client code to communicate unexpected synchronization events, such as failure to synchronize, or receipt of inconsistent data via DataQueue. More...
class	TimeoutException
	This Exception class can be used by client code to communicate that a timeout expired. More...
class	Token
	This helper class represents a virtual token which is passed between threads to prevent more than one thread from interacting with the Monitor at once. More...
class	Condition
	This helper class represents a condition variable as described in Hoare's paper. More...
class	Monitor
	This class implements the Monitor pattern proposed by C. More...
class	ThreadFunctor
	This abstract base class provides basic thread management. More...
Functions
bool	getXTime (double timeout, boost::xtime &xtimeout)
