class Foundation_API ThreadTarget: public Runnable
This adapter simplifies using static member functions as well as
standalone functions as targets for threads.
Note that it is possible to pass those entities directly to Thread::start().
This adapter is provided as a convenience for higher abstraction level
scenarios where Runnable abstract class is used.
For using a non-static member function as a thread target, please
see the RunnableAdapter class.
Usage:
class MyObject
{
static void doSomething() {}
};
ThreadTarget ra(&MyObject::doSomething));
Thread thr;
thr.start(ra);
or:
void doSomething() {}
ThreadTarget ra(doSomething));
Thread thr;
thr.start(ra);
{
public:
typedef void (*Callback)();
ThreadTarget(Callback method);
ThreadTarget(const ThreadTarget& te);
~ThreadTarget();
ThreadTarget& operator = (const ThreadTarget& te);
void run();
private:
ThreadTarget();
Callback _method;
};
//
// inlines
//
inline void ThreadTarget::run()
{
_method();
}
} // namespace Poco
