ACE_OS_Thread_Adapter Class Reference

Converts a C++ function into a function that can be called from a thread creation routine (e.g., pthread_create() or _beginthreadex()) that expects an extern "C" entry point. This class also makes it possible to transparently provide hooks to register a thread with an ACE_Thread_Manager. More...

Detailed Description

Converts a C++ function into a function that can be called from a thread creation routine (e.g., pthread_create() or _beginthreadex()) that expects an extern "C" entry point. This class also makes it possible to transparently provide hooks to register a thread with an ACE_Thread_Manager.

This class is used in ACE_OS::thr_create(). In general, the thread that creates an object of this class is different from the thread that calls invoke() on this object. Therefore, the invoke() method is responsible for deleting itself.

Constructor.

ACE_OS_Thread_Adapter::~ACE_OS_Thread_Adapter

Member Function Documentation

ACE_THR_FUNC_RETURN ACE_OS_Thread_Adapter::invoke

(

void

)

[virtual]

Execute the user_func_ with the arg. This function deletes this, thereby rendering the object useless after the call returns.

Implements ACE_Base_Thread_Adapter.
