Function Documentation

◆ getThread()

ALIB_API Thread * getThread ( std::thread::id c11ID )

Retrieves the ALib object associated with the given C++ 11 thread id. In case the threadID is not found in the hash table, the given id is considered a system thread and is entered into the hash table.

Parameters

c11ID The native thread id.

Returns: The associated ALib thread object.

◆ threadStart()

void threadStart ( Thread * thread )

Internal method to start a thread.

Parameters

thread The ALib thread object to start.

Variable Documentation

◆ moduleLock

ALIB_API std::mutex moduleLock

The internal mutex used with operations like starting, ending or finding thread objects.

Note: With the presence of module ALib Memory in the ALib Distribution, this object is not available. Instead, GlobalAllocatorLock is used, because this likewise protects modifications on object detail::threadMap, which uses this allocator.

◆ threadMap

ALIB_API HashMap<std::thread::id, Thread*> threadMap

The hash map used to find the current thread object. The object uses default values for HashTable::BaseLoadFactor and HashTable::MaxLoadFactor. Depending on the use of threads by a using application, these values might be modified prior to starting the first phase of bootstrapping ALib.

If so, an initial call to HashTable::Reserve may be likewise be performed.

Note: With the absence of module ALib Memory in the ALib Distribution, the type of this object is std::unordered_map.
