ThreadJoinable< RES > Class Template Reference

#include "lib/thread.hpp"

Description

template<typename RES = void>
class lib::ThreadJoinable< RES >

Variant of the standard case, requiring to wait and join() on the termination of this thread.

Useful to collect results calculated by multiple threads. Note however that the system resources of the thread are kept around until the join() call, and thus also the bool conversion yields true, even while the actual operation has already terminated.

Warning

Thread must be joined prior to destructor invocation, otherwise the application is shut down immediately via std::terminate.

Member Function Documentation

join()

lib::Result<RES> join ( )

inline

put the caller into a blocking wait until this thread has terminated

Returns

intermediary token signalling either success or failure. The caller can find out by invoking isValid() or maybeThrow() on this result token. Moreover, if the thread function yields a result value, this value is copied into the token and can be retrieved either by type conversion, or with get<TY>(), value_or(default) or even with an alternative producer or_else(λ).
