Thread

Constructors

this

this(void function() fn, size_t sz)

Initializes a thread object which is associated with a static D function.

this

this(void delegate() dg, size_t sz)

Initializes a thread object which is associated with a dynamic D function.

Destructor

~this

~this()

Cleans up any remaining resources used by this object.

Members

Functions

join

Throwable join(bool rethrow)

Waits for this thread to complete. If the thread terminated as the result of an unhandled exception, this exception will be rethrown.

start

Thread start()

Starts the thread and invokes the function or delegate passed upon construction.

Properties

PRIORITY_DEFAULT

int PRIORITY_DEFAULT [@property getter]

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

PRIORITY_DEFAULT

int PRIORITY_DEFAULT [@property getter]

The default scheduling priority that is set for a thread. On systems where multiple scheduling policies are defined, this value represents the default priority for the scheduling policy of the process.

PRIORITY_MAX

const(int) PRIORITY_MAX [@property getter]

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

PRIORITY_MAX

const(int) PRIORITY_MAX [@property getter]

The maximum scheduling priority that may be set for a thread. On systems where multiple scheduling policies are defined, this value represents the maximum valid priority for the scheduling policy of the process.

PRIORITY_MIN

int PRIORITY_MIN [@property getter]

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

PRIORITY_MIN

int PRIORITY_MIN [@property getter]

The minimum scheduling priority that may be set for a thread. On systems where multiple scheduling policies are defined, this value represents the minimum valid priority for the scheduling policy of the process.

isRunning

bool isRunning [@property getter]

Tests whether this thread is running.

priority

int priority [@property getter]

Gets the scheduling priority for the associated thread.

priority

int priority [@property setter]

Sets the scheduling priority for the associated thread.

Static functions

getThis

Thread getThis()

Provides a reference to the calling thread.

sleep

void sleep(Duration val)

Suspends the calling thread for at least the supplied period. This may result in multiple OS calls if period is greater than the maximum sleep duration supported by the operating system.

yield

void yield()

Forces a context switch to occur away from the calling thread.

Inherited Members

From ThreadBase

destructBeforeDtor

bool destructBeforeDtor()

Cleans up any remaining resources used by this object.

join

Throwable join(bool rethrow)

Waits for this thread to complete. If the thread terminated as the result of an unhandled exception, this exception will be rethrown.

id

ThreadID id [@property getter]

Gets the OS identifier for this thread.

name

string name [@property getter]

Gets the user-readable label for this thread.

name

string name [@property setter]

Sets the user-readable label for this thread.

isDaemon

bool isDaemon [@property getter]

Gets the daemon status for this thread. While the runtime will wait for all normal threads to complete before tearing down the process, daemon threads are effectively ignored and thus will not prevent the process from terminating. In effect, daemon threads will be terminated automatically by the OS when the process exits.

isDaemon

bool isDaemon [@property setter]

Sets the daemon status for this thread. While the runtime will wait for all normal threads to complete before tearing down the process, daemon threads are effectively ignored and thus will not prevent the process from terminating. In effect, daemon threads will be terminated automatically by the OS when the process exits.

isMainThread

bool isMainThread [@property getter]

Tests whether this thread is the main thread, i.e. the thread that initialized the runtime

isRunning

bool isRunning [@property getter]

Tests whether this thread is running.

getThis

ThreadBase getThis()

Provides a reference to the calling thread.

getAll

ThreadBase[] getAll()

Provides a list of all threads currently being tracked by the system. Note that threads in the returned array might no longer run (see ThreadBase..isRunning).

opApply

int opApply(int delegate(ref ThreadBase) dg)

Operates on all threads currently being tracked by the system. The result of deleting any Thread object is undefined. Note that threads passed to the callback might no longer run (see ThreadBase..isRunning).

setThis

void setThis(ThreadBase t)

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

pushContext

void pushContext(StackContext* c)

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

slock

Mutex slock [@property getter]

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

add

void add(StackContext* c)

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

add

void add(ThreadBase t, bool rmAboutToStart)

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
