std::condition_variable_any
Defined in header <condition_variable>
|
||
class condition_variable_any; |
(since C++11) | |
The condition_variable_any
class is a generalization of std::condition_variable. Whereas std::condition_variable works only on std::unique_lock<std::mutex>, condition_variable_any
can operate on any lock that meets the BasicLockable requirements.
See std::condition_variable for the description of the semantics of condition variables.
The class std::condition_variable_any
is a standard-layout class. It is not copy-constructible, move-constructible, copy-assignable, or move-assignable.
If the lock is std::unique_lock, std::condition_variable may provide better performance.
Member functions

destructs the object (public member function) | |
operator= [deleted] |

Notification | |
notifies one waiting thread (public member function) | |
notifies all waiting threads (public member function) | |
Waiting | |
blocks the current thread until the condition variable is woken up (public member function) | |
blocks the current thread until the condition variable is woken up or after the specified timeout duration (public member function) | |
blocks the current thread until the condition variable is woken up or until specified time point has been reached (public member function) |
Notes
std::condition_variable_any
can be used with std::shared_lock in order to wait on a std::shared_mutex in shared ownership mode.
A possible use for std::condition_variable_any
with custom Lockable types is to provide convenient interruptible waits: the custom lock operation would both lock the associated mutex as expected, and also perform the necessary setup to notify this condition variable when the interrupting signal is received.[1]
