Usage

Importing issues

Currently importing just with import libsnooze is broken, we recommend you import as follows:

import libsnooze.clib;
import libsnooze;

Which should build!

Example

Firstly we create an Event which is something that can be notified or awaited on. This is simply accomplished as follows:

Event myEvent = new Event();

Now let's create a thread which consumes myEvent and waits on it:

class TestThread : Thread
{
    private Event event;

    this(Event event)
    {
        super(&worker);
        this.event = event;
    }

    public void worker()
    {
        writeln("("~to!(string)(Thread.getThis().id())~") Thread is waiting...");
        event.wait();
        writeln("("~to!(string)(Thread.getThis().id())~") Thread is waiting... [done]");
    }
}

TestThread thread1 = new TestThread(event);
thread1.start();

Now on the main thread we can do the following to wakeup waiting threads:

/* Wake up all sleeping on this event */
event.notifyAll();
