SYNOPSIS

#include <ace/OS.h>
class ACE_TSS_Info
{
  public:
    ACE_TSS_Info (ACE_thread_key_t key, void (*dest)(
        void *) = 0,
        void *tss_inst = 0
        );

    inline void key_in_use (int flag);
    int operator== (const ACE_TSS_Info &) const;
    int operator!= (const ACE_TSS_Info &) const;
    void dump (void);
  private:

    void (*destructor_)(void *);
    void *tss_obj_;
    int thread_count_;
    friend class ACE_TSS_Cleanup;
};

DESCRIPTION

This class maps a key to a "destructor."

PUBLIC MEMBERS

ACE_TSS_Info (ACE_thread_key_t key, void (*dest)(
    void *) = 0,
    void *tss_inst = 0
    );

Constructor

ACE_TSS_Info (void);

Default constructor

inline int key_in_use (void) const;

Returns 1 if the key is in use, 0 if not.

inline void key_in_use (int flag);

Mark the key as being in use if the flag is non-zero, or not in use if the flag is 0.

int operator== (const ACE_TSS_Info &) const;

Check for equality.

int operator!= (const ACE_TSS_Info &) const;

Check for inequality.

void dump (void);

Dump the state.

PRIVATE MEMBERS

ACE_thread_key_t key_;

Key to the thread-specific storage item.

void (*destructor_)(void *);

"Destructor" that gets called when the item is finally released.

void *tss_obj_;

Pointer to ACE_TSSxxx instance that has/will allocate the key.

int thread_count_;

Count of threads that are using this key. Contains -1 when the key is not in use.

friend class ACE_TSS_Cleanup;

The ACE_Sched_Priority type should be used for platform-

independent thread and process priorities, by convention. int should be used for OS-specific priorities.

typedef for the _stat data structure

Giving unique ACE scoped names for some important

RTSignal-Related constants. Becuase sometimes, different platforms use different names for these constants.
