Description : C++ thread library
The ZThread package is an advanced object-oriented, cross-platform, C++
threading and synchronization library. It provides a high level
abstraction of the native threading mechanisms to offer a great deal of
flexibility and control.
This software features interruptible Thread and Runnable objects for
C++, control objects and implementations of concurrency design patterns.
This includes semaphores, mutexes, condition variabes as well as other
more complex components.
Existing threading APIs do not provide a consistent and portable means
for exercising control over concurrently executing software. Thread
cancellation a nd termination is one example of this complexity.
ZThreads includes an elegant method of safely terminating threads
without the complications of using cancellation handlers or other
similar constructs.
