## Detailed Description

Thread abstraction; including threads, different mutexes, conditions and thread private data.

Deprecated:
  The entire Glib::Threads API is deprecated in favor of the standard C++ concurrency API in C++11 and C++14.

## Enumeration Type Documentation

## NotLock

enum Glib::Threads::NotLock

Deprecated:
  Please use std::lock_guard or std::unique_lock instead.

Enumerator
NOT_LOCK |

## TryLock

Enumerator
TRY_LOCK |

## Function Documentation

## wrap() [1/3]

Thread* wrap | ( | GThread * | gobject | ) |

related

A C++ wrapper for the C object.

Parameters

  gobject | The C instance.

Returns
  The C++ wrapper.

Deprecated:
  Please use std::thread instead.

## wrap() [2/3]

Mutex* wrap | ( | GMutex * | gobject | ) |

related

A C++ wrapper for the C object.

Do not use operator delete on the returned pointer. If the caller owns the GMutex object, the caller must destroy it in the same way as if this function had not been called.

Parameters

  gobject | The C instance.

Returns
  The GMutex* cast to a Glib::Threads::Mutex*.

## wrap() [3/3]

RecMutex* wrap | ( | GRecMutex * | gobject | ) |

related

A C++ wrapper for the C object.

Do not use operator delete on the returned pointer. If the caller owns the GRecMutex object, the caller must destroy it in the same way as if this function had not been called.

Parameters

  gobject | The C instance.

Returns
  The GRecMutex* cast to a Glib::Threads::RecMutex*.
