Libthreadar

Description

This is the documentation pages of Libthreadar, a C++ library which provides several classes to manipulate threads:

• class barrier
• class freezer
• class mutex
• class semaphore
• class fast_tampon
• class thread
• class thread_signal
• class freezer
• class condition
• class ratelier_gather
• class ratelier_scatter

These classes are independent from each others (even if some inherit from some others like libthreadar::condition from libthreadar::mutex) and are defined within the libthreadar namespace. Examples of use are available in the example subdirectory of source package.

History and origin

The code of libthreadar has been extracted from Webdar project in 2014, due to the fact it would be useful to dar/libdar to implement parallel compression and parallel encryption in particular (where from this project name), while Webdar was abandonned at that time (it has been ressurrected in 2022 and should get its first release in 2025, webdar also relies on libthreadar).
