class Job

Defined in: C4Threads.h

The Job class represents a single job that runs in one of the Thread Manager's worker threads.

Definition

class Job : public ListElement<Job>

Member Functions

`Job::JobComplete`	Returns a boolean value indicating whether a job has finished executing.
`Job::JobCancelled`	Returns a boolean value indicating whether a job has been cancelled.
`Job::GetThreadIndex`	Returns the worker thread index for a job.

Constructor

Job(ExecuteCallback *execCallback, void *cookie = nullptr);

Parameters

`execCallback`	The main execution function for the job.
`cookie`	A pointer to user-defined data that is passed to the job's execution function.

Description

The Job class is used to encapsulate the execution function and data for a single job. Jobs are queued for execution by one of the Thread Manager's worker threads by calling the ThreadMgr::SubmitJob function.

The function specified by the execCallback parameter should have the following signature.

typedef void ExecuteCallback(Job *, void *);

The first parameter passed to the execution function is a pointer to the Job object itself, and the second parameter is the cookie parameter that was passed to the Job constructor.

Base Classes

ListElement<Job> Used internally by the Thread Manager.
