Detailed Description

A thread is a thread of execution in a program.

---

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Thread (   )

Allocates a new Thread object.

Thread (  RunnablePtr  runnable  )

Allocates a new Thread object.

---

Member Function Documentation

unsigned long getCurrentThreadId (   )  [static]

Returns the current thread identifier

long InterlockedDecrement (  volatile long *  val  )  [static]

Atomic decrement

long InterlockedIncrement (  volatile long *  val  )  [static]

Atomic increment

void join (   )

Waits for this thread to die.

void run (   )  [virtual]

If this thread was constructed using a separate Runnable run object, then that Runnable object's run method is called; otherwise, this method does nothing and returns. Reimplemented in FileWatchdog.

void setPriority (  int  newPriority  )

Changes the priority of this thread.

void sleep (  long  millis  )  [static]

Causes the currently executing thread to sleep (temporarily cease execution) for the specified number of milliseconds.

void start (   )

Causes this thread to begin execution; calls the run method of this thread. Reimplemented in FileWatchdog.
