Class Description

                                                                      
 TThread                                                              
                                                                      
 This class implements threads. A thread is an execution environment  
 much lighter than a process. A single process can have multiple      
 threads. The actual work is done via the TThreadImp class (either    
 TPosixThread or TWin32Thread).
TThread(VoidRtnFunc_t fn, void *arg, EPriority pri)
 Create a thread. Specify the function or static class method
 to be executed by the thread and a pointer to the argument structure.
 The user function should return a void*. To start the thread call Run().
TThread(VoidFunc_t fn, void *arg, EPriority pri)
 Create a detached thread. Specify the function or class method
 to be executed by the thread and a pointer to the argument structure.
 To start the thread call Run().
TThread(const char *thname, VoidRtnFunc_t fn, void *arg, EPriority pri)
 Create thread with a name. Specify the function or class method
 to be executed by the thread and a pointer to the argument structure.
 The user function should return a void*. To start the thread call Run().
TThread(const char *thname, VoidFunc_t fn, void *arg, EPriority pri)
 Create a detached thread with a name. Specify the function or class
 method to be executed by the thread and a pointer to the argument
 structure. To start the thread call Run().
void Init()
 Initialize global state and variables once.
void Constructor()
 Common thread constructor.
~TThread()
 Cleanup the thread.
Int_t Delete(TThread *th)
 Static method to delete the specified thread.
Int_t Exists()
 Static method to check if threads exist.
 returns the number of running threads.
void SetPriority(EPriority pri)
 Set thread priority.
TThread * GetThread(Long_t id)
 Static method to find a thread by id.
TThread * GetThread(const char *name)
 Static method to find a thread by name.
TThread * Self()
 Static method returning pointer to current thread.
Long_t Join(void **ret)
 Join this thread.
Long_t Join(Long_t jid, void **ret)
 Static method to join a thread by id.
Long_t SelfId()
 Static method returning the id for the current thread.
Int_t Run(void *arg)
 Start the thread. This starts the static method TThread::Function()
 which calls the user function specified in the TThread ctor with
 the arg argument.
Int_t Kill()
 Kill this thread.
Int_t Kill(Long_t id)
 Static method to kill the thread by id.
Int_t Kill(const char *name)
 Static method to kill thread by name.
Int_t SetCancelOff()
 Static method to turn off thread cancellation.
Int_t SetCancelOn()
 Static method to turn on thread cancellation.
Int_t SetCancelAsynchronous()
 Static method to set asynchronous cancellation.
Int_t SetCancelDeferred()
 Static method to set deffered cancellation.
Int_t CancelPoint()
 Static method to set a cancellation point.
Int_t CleanUpPush(void *free, void *arg)
 Static method which pushes thread cleanup method on stack.
 Returns 0 in case of success and -1 in case of error.
Int_t CleanUpPop(Int_t exe)
 Static method which pops thread cleanup method off stack.
 Returns 0 in case of success and -1 in case of error.
Int_t CleanUp()
 Static method to cleanup the calling thread.
void AfterCancel(TThread *th)
 Static method which is called after the thread has been canceled.
Int_t Exit(void *ret)
 Static method which terminates the execution of the calling thread.
Int_t Sleep(ULong_t secs, ULong_t nanos)
 Static method to sleep the calling thread.
Int_t GetTime(ULong_t *absSec, ULong_t *absNanoSec)
 Static method to get the current time. Returns
 the number of seconds.
Int_t Lock()
 Static method to lock the main thread mutex.
Int_t TryLock()
 Static method to try to lock the main thread mutex.
Int_t UnLock()
 Static method to unlock the main thread mutex.
void * Function(void *ptr)
 Static method which is called by the system thread function and
 which in turn calls the actual user function.
void Ps()
 Static method listing the existing threads.
void ** Tsd(void *dflt, Int_t k)
 Static method returning a pointer to thread specific data container
 of the calling thread.
void Printf(const char *va_(fmt), ...)
 Static method providing a thread safe printf. Appends a newline.
void ErrorHandler(int level, const char *location, const char *fmt, va_list ap)
 Thread specific error handler function.
 It calls the user set error handler in the main thread.
void DoError(int level, const char *location, const char *fmt, va_list va)
 Interface to ErrorHandler. User has to specify the class name as
 part of the location, just like for the global Info(), Warning() and
 Error() functions.
Int_t XARequest(const char *xact, Int_t nb, void **ar, Int_t *iret)
 Static method used to allow commands to be executed by the main thread.
void XAction()
 Static method called via the thread timer to execute in the main
 thread certain commands. This to avoid sophisticated locking and
 possible deadlocking.
void SetComment(const char *txt = 0)
TThread& operator=(const TThread&)
void Delete(Option_t *option="")
{ TObject::Delete(option); }
EPriority GetPriority()
{ return fPriority; }
EState GetState()
{ return fState; }
Long_t GetId()
{ return fId; }
void ps()
{ Ps(); }
