Additional Inherited Members

A runlist is used to restrict concurrent exection to a limited set of concurrent sessions, much like a semaphore.

However, the runlist differs in that it notifies objects when they become ready to run, rather than requiring them to wait and 'block' for the semaphore count to become low enough to continue.

Author:

ost::Runlist::Runlist (unsignedcount = \fC1\fP)

Create a new runlist with a specified limit.

Parameters:

count limit before wait queuing.

bool ost::Runlist::add (\fBRunable\fP *run)

Add a runable object to this runlist. If the number of entries running is below the limit, then add returns true otherwise the entry is added to the list.

Returns:

true if immediately ready to run

Parameters:

run pointer to runable object.

void ost::Runlist::check (void)\fC [protected]\fP

void ost::Runlist::del (\fBRunable\fP *run)

Parameters:

run pointer to runable object.

void ost::Runlist::set (unsignedlimit)
