Detailed Description
A runlist is used to restrict concurrent exection to a limited set of concurrent sessions, much like a semaphore.
However, the runlist differs in that it notifies objects when they become ready to run, rather than requiring them to wait and "block" for the semaphore count to become low enough to continue.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation
Runlist::Runlist
(
unsigned
count = 1
)
Create a new runlist with a specified limit.
- Parameters
-
count limit before wait queuing.
Member Function Documentation
bool Runlist::add
(
Runable *
run )
Add a runable object to this runlist.
If the number of entries running is below the limit, then add returns true otherwise the entry is added to the list.
- Returns
- true if immediately ready to run
- Parameters
-
run pointer to runable object.
void Runlist::check
(
void
)
protected
void Runlist::del
(
Runable *
run )
Remove a runable object from the wait list or notify when it is done running so that the used count can be decremented.
- Parameters
-
run pointer to runable object.
void Mutex::enter

inlineinherited
Future abi will use enter/leave/test members.
Definition at line 263 of file thread.h.
void Mutex::enterMutex
(
void
)
inherited
Entering a Mutex locks the mutex for the current thread.
This also can be done using the ENTER_CRITICAL macro or by using the ++ operator on a mutex.

- leaveMutex
void Mutex::leave
(
void
)
inlineinherited
Future abi will use enter/leave/test members.
Definition at line 269 of file thread.h.
void Mutex::leaveMutex
(
void
)
inherited
Leaving a mutex frees that mutex for use by another thread.
If the mutex has been entered (invoked) multiple times (recursivily) by the same thread, then it will need to be exited the same number of instances before it is free for re-use. This operation can also be done using the LEAVE_CRITICAL macro or by the – operator on a mutex.

- enterMutex
void Mutex::nameMutex
(
const char *
name )
inlineinherited
Enable setting of mutex name for deadlock debug.
- Parameters
-
name for mutex.
Definition at line 248 of file thread.h.
void Runlist::set
(
unsigned
limit )
Set the limit.
- Parameters
-
limit to use.
static void Mutex::setDebug
(
bool
mode )
inlinestaticinherited
Enable or disable deadlock debugging.
- Parameters
-
mode debug mode.
Definition at line 240 of file thread.h.
bool Mutex::test
(
void
)
inlineinherited
Future abi will use enter/leave/test members.
- Returns
- true if entered.
Definition at line 277 of file thread.h.
bool Mutex::tryEnterMutex
(
void
)
inherited
Tries to lock the mutex for the current thread.
Behaves like enterMutex , except that it doesn't block the calling thread if the mutex is already locked by another thread.
- Returns
- true if locking the mutex was succesful otherwise false
- See Also
- enterMutex
-
leaveMutex
