Detailed Description

Host OS fiber. Each guest fiber owns one Fiber. A switch keeps the whole C++ call stack.

Member Function Documentation

ConvertCurrentThread()

Fiber * rex::platform::Fiber::ConvertCurrentThread ( )

static

Converts the calling thread into a fiber.

Returns

Fiber for the current execution context, or null on failure.

Create()

Fiber * rex::platform::Fiber::Create ( size_t stack_size, void(* entry )(void *), void * arg )

static

Creates a fiber with its own host stack. The first switch to it calls entry(arg).

Returns

The new fiber, or null on failure.

Destroy()

void rex::platform::Fiber::Destroy

(

)

Destroys the fiber. A created fiber must not be running. A converted thread fiber is destroyed from its own thread and turns it back into a plain thread.

GetCurrent()

Fiber * rex::platform::Fiber::GetCurrent ( )

static

Returns the fiber running on the calling thread, or null when the thread was never converted.

SwitchTo()

void rex::platform::Fiber::SwitchTo ( Fiber * target )

static

Suspends the current fiber and resumes target. Returns when another fiber switches back.
