int pthreads::Thread::cancel

(

)

cancel this thread

int pthreads::Thread::detach

(

)

(

int

sig

)

send a signal to the thread

int pthreads::Thread::launch	(	routine_t	start,
		void *	arg = 0
	)

start a new thread storing the id in m_data

int pthreads::Thread::launch	(	const Attr< Thread > &	attr,

	)

start a new thread using the specified attributes

template<typename Callable >

int pthreads::Thread::launch ( Callable *  obj )

inline

start a new thread which calls the callable object

Definition at line 66 of file thread.h.

template<typename Callable >

int pthreads::Thread::launch ( const Attr< Thread > &  attr, Callable *  obj  )

inline

start a new thread which calls the collable object and has the specified attributes

Definition at line 73 of file thread.h.

bool pthreads::Thread::operator==

(

const Thread &
