Detailed Description

The class Thread is used to represent the worker threads in the weaver's inventory.

It is not meant to be overloaded.

Definition at line 46 of file Thread.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Thread::Thread ( WeaverImpl *  parent = 0 )

explicit

Create a thread.

These thread objects are only used inside the Weaver parent object.

@param parent the parent WeaverImpl

Definition at line 68 of file Thread.cpp.

Thread::~Thread

(

)

The destructor.

Definition at line 75 of file Thread.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

unsigned int Thread::id

(

)

Returns the thread id.

This id marks the respective Thread object, and must therefore not be confused with, e.g., the pthread thread ID.

Generally, the way threads are implemented is not specified. id() is the only way to uniquely identify a thread within ThreadWeaver.

Definition at line 80 of file Thread.cpp.

void ThreadWeaver::Thread::jobDone ( ThreadWeaver::Job *  )

signal

The thread finished to execute a job.

void ThreadWeaver::Thread::jobStarted ( ThreadWeaver::Thread *  , ThreadWeaver::Job *    )

signal

The thread started to process a job.

void Thread::msleep

(

unsigned long

msec

)

Provide the msleep() method (protected in QThread) to be available for executed jobs.

Parameters

msec	amount of milliseconds

Definition at line 115 of file Thread.cpp.

void Thread::requestAbort

(

)

Request the abortion of the current job.

If there is no current job, this method will do nothing, but can safely be called. It forwards the request to the current Job.

Definition at line 120 of file Thread.cpp.

void Thread::run

(

)

Overload to execute the assigned jobs.

Whenever the thread is idle, it will ask its Weaver parent for a Job to do. The Weaver will either return a Job or a Nil pointer. When a Nil pointer is returned, it tells the thread to exit.

Definition at line 85 of file Thread.cpp.

void ThreadWeaver::Thread::started ( ThreadWeaver::Thread *  )

signal

The thread has been started.
