A thread synchronization object used to suspend execution until some condition on shared data is met.
A thread calls Wait() to suspend its execution until the condition is met. Each call to Signal() from an executing thread will then cause a single waiting thread to be released. A call to Signal() means, "signal that the condition is true." Broadcast() releases all threads waiting on the condition variable.
The ITK ConditionVariable implementation is consistent with the standard definition and use of condition variables in pthreads and other common thread libraries.
IMPORTANT: A condition variable always requires an associated SimpleMutexLock object. The mutex object is used to avoid a dangerous race condition when Wait() and Signal() are called simultaneously from two different threads.
On systems using pthreads, this implementation abstract the standard calls to the pthread condition variable. On Win32 systems, there is no system provided condition variable. This class implements a condition variable using a critical section, a semphore, an event and a number of counters. The implementation is almost an extract translation of the implementation presented by Douglas C Schmidt and Irfan Pyarali in "Strategies for Implementing POSIX Condition Variables on Win32".

void itk::ConditionVariable::Broadcast | ( | ) |
Signal that the condition is true and release all waiting threads
|
virtual |
Create an object from an instance, potentially deferring to a factory. This method allows you to create an instance of an object that is exactly the same type as the referring object. This is useful in cases where an object has been cast back to a base class.

Run-time type information (and related methods).

Method for creation through the object factory.

void itk::ConditionVariable::Signal | ( | ) |
Signal that the condition is true and release one waiting thread
void itk::ConditionVariable::Wait | ( | SimpleMutexLock * | mutex | ) |
Suspend execution of this thread until the condition is signaled. The argument is a SimpleMutex object that must be locked prior to calling this method.
