NAME
threads - Portable Threads Abstraction Classes

SYNOPSIS

  Typedefs
typedef struct cc_thread cc_thread
The type definition for the thread structure.
typedef struct cc_mutex cc_mutex
The type definition for the mutex structure.
typedef struct cc_rwmutex cc_rwmutex
The type definition for the read-write mutex structure.
typedef struct cc_storage cc_storage
The type definition for the thread local memory storage structure.
typedef struct cc_condvar cc_condvar
The type definition for the conditional variable structure.
typedef struct cc_worker cc_worker
The type definition for the worker thread structure.
typedef struct cc_wpool cc_wpool
The type definition for a worker pool structure.
typedef struct cc_recmutex cc_recmutex
The type definition for the recursive mutex structure.
typedef struct cc_sched cc_sched
The type definition for the thread scheduler structure.
typedef struct cc_fifo cc_fifo
The type definition for the first-in, first-out queue structure.
typedef struct cc_barrier cc_barrier
The type definition for the thread barrier structure.

  Enumerations
enum cc_threads_implementation { CC_NO_THREADS = -1, CC_PTHREAD = 0, CC_W32THREAD }
The definition of the enumerator for identification of the thread type implemented.
enum cc_retval { CC_ERROR = 0, CC_OK = 1, CC_TIMEOUT, CC_BUSY }
The enumerator for return values of thread related functions.
enum cc_precedence { CC_READ_PRECEDENCE, CC_WRITE_PRECEDENCE }
The precedence values for the read-write mutex.

Detailed Description

Coin implements a set of abstractions over the native threads data types that can be portably used across all the platforms Coin has been ported to.

Enumeration Type Documentation

  enum enum cc_threads_implementation cc_threads_implementation

The definition of the enumerator for identification of the thread type implemented. The type definition for the implemented thread enumerator.

{ CC_NO_THREADS = -1, CC_PTHREAD = 0, CC_W32THREAD }

  enum enum cc_retval cc_retval

The enumerator for return values of thread related functions. The type definition for the return value enumerator.

{ CC_ERROR = 0, CC_OK = 1, CC_TIMEOUT, CC_BUSY }

  enum enum cc_precedence cc_precedence

The precedence values for the read-write mutex. The type definition of the cc_precedence enumerator.

{CC_READ_PRECEDENCE, CC_WRITE_PRECEDENCE}

CC_READ_PRECEDENCE is the default.
