Public Member Functions
	xiiOSThread (xiiOSThreadEntryPoint threadEntryPoint, void pUserData=nullptr, xiiStringView sName="xiiOSThread", xiiUInt32 uiStackSize=128 1024)

	Returns the thread ID of the thread object, may be used in comparison operations with xiiThreadUtils::GetCurrentThreadID() for example.

Static Public Member Functions
static xiiInt32	GetThreadCount ()
	Returns how many xiiOSThreads are currently active.

Detailed Description

Implementation of a thread.

Since the thread class needs a platform specific entry-point it is usually recommended to use the xiiThread class instead as the base for long running threads.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ xiiOSThread()

xiiOSThread::xiiOSThread	(	xiiOSThreadEntryPoint	threadEntryPoint,
		void *	pUserData = nullptr,
		xiiStringView	sName = "xiiOSThread",
		xiiUInt32	uiStackSize = 128 * 1024 )

Initializes the thread instance (e.g. thread creation etc.)

Note that the thread won't start execution until Start() is called. Please note that szName must be valid until Start() has been called!

Member Function Documentation

◆ Join()

void xiiOSThread::Join ( )

Waits in the calling thread until the thread has finished execution (e.g. returned from the thread function)

Releases a lock that has been previously acquired.

Joins with the thread (waits for termination)

◆ Start()

void xiiOSThread::Start ( )

Starts the thread.

Attempts to acquire an exclusive lock for this mutex object.
