Gemstone Threading Library
Gemstone.
The Gemstone.Threading namespace organizes all Gemstone library functionality
related to threading. The root threading namespace also includes common threading classes,
e.g., ConcurrencyLimiter.
Classes
| AsyncLock | Represents a lock that can be awaited to obtain exclusive access to resources within a critical region of code. |
| AsyncReaderWriterLock | Represents an asynchronous implementation of a reader/writer lock. |
| ConcurrencyLimiter | Task scheduler that limits the number of tasks that can execute in parallel at any given time. |
| RateLimiter | A rate limiting system based on tokes. |
| ReaderWriterSpinLock | Represents a fast, lightweight reader/writer lock that uses spinning to perform locking. No recursive acquires or upgradable locks are allowed (i.e., all entered locks must be exited before entering another lock). |
| ScheduledTask | Represents a way to schedule a task to be executed on a separate thread immediately or after a given time delay. |
| SharedTimer | Represents a timer class that will group registered timer event callbacks that operate on the same interval in order to optimize thread pool queuing. |
| SharedTimerScheduler | Represents a timer manager which is the scheduler of SharedTimer. |
| ShutdownHandler | This class will monitor the state to the application and raise events when it detects that the application is about to shut down. |
| TaskCompletionSourceFactory | Provides factory functions for creating new TaskCompletionSourceTResult objects. |
| WeakAction | Provides a weak referenced Action delegate. |
| WeakActionT | Provides a weak referenced Action delegate. |
Enumerations
| ScheduledTaskRunningReason | Metadata about why this worker was called. |
| ShutdownHandlerOrder | The order in which the specified callback should occur when shutting down. |
| ThreadingMode | Specifies the threading mode to use for the ScheduledTask |
