Detailed Description

A pool of worker threads that do stuff in parallel.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ WorkerPool()

WorkerPool ( const unsigned int  _minThreadCount = 1u)
explicit

Creates worker threads. The number of worker threads is determined by max(std::thread::hardware_concurrency, _minThreadCount).

Parameters
[in]_minThreadCountThe minimum number of threads to create in the pool. A value of zero is converted to a value of 1.
Note
It's not recommended to set _minThreadCount greater than std::thread::hardware_concurrency.

◆ ~WorkerPool()

~WorkerPool ( )

closes worker threads

Member Function Documentation

◆ AddWork()

void AddWork ( std::function< void()>  _work,
std::function< void()>  _cb = std::function< void()>() 
)

Adds work to the worker pool with optional callback.

Parameters
[in]_workfunction to do one piece of work
[in]_cboptional callback when the work is done
Remarks
Typical work is a function bound with arguments. It must

◆ WaitForResults()

bool WaitForResults ( const Time _timeout = Time::Zero)

Waits until all work is done and threads are idle.

Parameters
[in]_timeoutHow long to wait, default to forever
Returns
true if all work was finished
Remarks
The return value can be false even when waiting forever if
