Member Function Documentation

MStatus MThreadAsync::init (  )  [static]

Initialize asynchronous thread creation mechanism. No threads are created by this call. Each call to init increases a reference count on the class, each call to release() reduces the reference count. When the reference count reaches zero the threads are deleted.

Returns:
Examples:

MStatus MThreadAsync::createTask ( MThreadFunc  func,
void *  data,
MThreadAsyncCallbackFunc  afunc,
MThreadRootTask *  root 
) [static]

Create a single task. createMapping must have been called before calling this method.

Parameters:
[in] func pointer to function to be executed by threads
[in] data data for function
[in] afunc pointer to callback function to be executed by threads
[in] root root task
Returns:
Examples:

void MThreadAsync::release (  )  [static]

This function decreases the reference count on the class. When the reference count reaches zero the threads are deleted.
