Enumeration Type Documentation

JOBGROUPFLAGS

enum JOBGROUPFLAGS

strong

Flags for enqueue options of a JobGroup.

Enumerator
DEFAULT	Default case.
ENQUEUEING_THREAD_WAITS	The enqueuing thread waits until the group has finished and might be used to execute jobs.
FINALIZE_ON_WAIT	After Enqueue() further Add()s can be made which start the jobs ASAP. A following call to Wait() or GetResult() finalizes the group (no more jobs can be added). Can be useful if there is a lot of setup work before a job can be added.
THREAD_AFFINITY	On Enqueue() each jobs is permanently assigned to a worker thread. This blocks load balancing and is therefore slower and only useful for special cases. If a group with thread affinity had more jobs than the queue had threads its jobs must not have dependencies or wait calls. Only supported for queues where thread affinity has been enabled.
NO_JOB_DESTRUCTOR	The individual jobs do not require destruction.

STATICJOBGROUPFLAGS

enum STATICJOBGROUPFLAGS

strong

Flags describing the ownership of a StaticJobGroup. You don't have to bother using anything other than DEFAULT.

Enumerator
DEFAULT	Safe default case.
WILL_RUN_FINALIZER	A single-threaded finalizer will run after waiting for the group.
ENQUEUEING_THREAD_WAITS	The enqueuing thread waits until the group has finished and might be used to execute jobs.
THREAD_AFFINITY	On Enqueue() each jobs is permanently assigned to a worker thread. This blocks load balancing and therefore slower and only useful for special cases.
NO_JOB_DESTRUCTOR	The individual jobs do not require destruction.

STATICJOBARRAYFLAGS

enum STATICJOBARRAYFLAGS

strong

Initialization options for the StaticJobArray.

Enumerator
DEFAULT	Default behaviour: Array is empty.
INITIALIZE_LATER	Array consists of as many uninitialized elements as it has capacity. The caller will construct them later on (before it is added to the group).

JOBQUEUETYPE

enum JOBQUEUETYPE

strong

Type of job queue.

Enumerator
MAINTHREAD	Jobs are executed on the main thread whenever the event loop can spare some time: there is only one queue of this type: use GetMainThreadQueue() to access it.
NONE	Jobs are not enqueued but executed in the current context.
LOWESTPRIORITY	Use lowest priority threads (worker threads have lowest priority and will not idle when waiting for new jobs or waiting for a group to finish).
LOWPRIORITY	Use low priority threads.
NORMALPRIORITY	Use normal priority threads (You should rarely have to create a queue with normal priority. Most of the time low priority is sufficient: This makes sure that you don't interfere with really important tasks and if available you still get all cpu power).
SERVICEIO	Queue is used for IO and priority is adapted accordingly. Spinning on idle is not allowed.
THREADLESS

JOBQUEUEMODE

enum JOBQUEUEMODE

strong

Options for the job queue.

Enumerator
DEFAULT	Use default settings for the queue.
SPIN_ON_IDLE	When there are no jobs threads will be spinning for a short moment before they go to sleep (low latency and highest performance but might unnecessary steals cycles from other threads).
SLEEP_ON_IDLE	When there are no jobs threads will immediately go to sleep (results in higher latency).
DETACH_THREADS	When there are no jobs the threads will immediately go to sleep and make themselves available to other queues (results in higher latency but less memory/resource usage).
PSEUDO_THREADS	The workers behave like ordinary threads (JOBQUEUE_CURRENT points to the default queue and the threads don't have a worker thread index).

PARALLELFORFLAGS

enum PARALLELFORFLAGS

strong

Flags controlling the threading of the init and finalize section of ParallelFor. The default case is INITTHREADED_FINALIZESYNC. Each worker thread will independently call the init section for its part of the loop and then execute the loop body. The init section of a thread might be executed after any another thread has almost executed the whole loop - there's no guarantee that all init sections have finished before the loop body is entered, you might even have worker threads that don't run the init, loop and finalize section because another thread has already done the whole work. After the loop has finished for each init section the corresponding finalize will be called synchronously one after another. There might be cases where you must make sure that the init section for all worker threads has finished before the loop is executed, for example because you also must initialize some global variables for each worker thread that will be utilized by nested ParallelFors or other sub-jobs. Depending on your needs you might specify INITSYNC_FINALIZETHREADED,

Enumerator
INITTHREADED_FINALIZETHREADED	Init() and Finalize() calls are threaded.
INITTHREADED_FINALIZESYNC	Init() is called threaded, Finalize() is called synchronously (default case).
INITSYNC_FINALIZETHREADED	Init() is called synchronously, Finalize() is called threaded.
INITSYNC_FINALIZESYNC	Init() and Finalize() are called synchronously.
NOINIT_NOFINALIZE	no call to Init() or Finalize().

Function Documentation

ExecuteOnMainThread()

auto ExecuteOnMainThread	(	FN &&	fn,
		WAITMODE	waitMode,
		TimeValue	timeout
	)		-> decltype(fn())

Executes a lambda on the main thread and returns its result (if any). If the current thread is the main thread the lambda is executed directly. Otherwise a job will be enqueued and the function waits until it has finished. If the job does not return any values and can be executed asynchronously you might specify DONT_WAIT as waitMode parameter. The job is always guaranteed to be executed and this method will only return an error if the lambda does.

Parameters

[in]	fn	Lambda object with the code to be executed.
[in]	waitMode	DONT_WAIT if you don't want to wait, otherwise it defines the waitMode of the operation. Useful values are WAITMODE::RETURN_ON_CANCEL if you want to return on thrread cancelation to prevent dead locks
[in]	timeout	The time to wait for the execution (infinite by default).

Returns

Return value of the lambda.

JobInterface() [1/2]

JobInterface ( const JobInterfaceJumpTablePOD &  jmpTable )

explicit

Initializes the JobInterface including the jump table to the implementation methods.

Parameters

[in]

jmpTable

Jump table of the implementation class.

~JobInterface()

JobInterface

(

JobInterface &&

src

Move constructor is just for use with BaseArray (JobGroupInterface::Add())

operator=()

JobInterface& operator=

(

JobInterface &&

src

)

Move assignment operator is just for use with BaseArray (JobGroupInterface::Add()).

Wait()

Bool Wait	(	TimeValue	timeout = TIMEVALUE_INFINITE,
		WAITMODE	mode = WAITMODE::DEFAULT
	)		const

Waits until this job has been executed. As long as a job hasn't been started it is considered not to have finished yet. Once it has run this will return immediately.

Wait() might execute other jobs in the current queue until the one you are waiting for has finished or is timed out. Therefore you must never lock a shared resource another job might use as well and then wait. For one this could dead-lock and conceptually this would result in single-threaded performance.

If you call Wait() from within an enqueued job you must have enqueued what you are waiting for. Otherwise Wait() will immediately return false because this would lead to a deadlock. The same applies if a job tries to wait for itself.

Instead of waiting for a job to start some action after it has finished you can subscribe to ObservableFinished(). This cannot dead-lock, is more efficient and can even be used to run the observer in a different queue. For example you can run a job and register an observer for it that will run on the main thread's queue and updates the UI. THREADSAFE.

Parameters

[in]	timeout	Maximum wait interval (or TIMEVALUE_INFINITE for no time-out).
[in]	mode	WAITMODE::DEFAULT by default. WAITMODE::RETURN_ON_CANCEL means that Wait() will return if the caller has been cancelled even if the condition has not been set yet.

Returns

True if successful, false if you try to wait inside an enqueued job.

GetResult() [1/3]

Result<void> GetResult	(	TimeValue	timeout = TIMEVALUE_INFINITE,
		WAITMODE	mode = WAITMODE::DEFAULT
	)		const

Waits until this job has been executed and returns the result. THREADSAFE.

Parameters

[in]	timeout	Maximum wait interval (or TIMEVALUE_INFINITE for no time-out).
[in]	mode	WAITMODE::DEFAULT by default. WAITMODE::RETURN_ON_CANCEL means that Wait() will return if the caller has been cancelled even if the condition has not been set yet.

Returns

OK on success.

MoveResult() [1/3]

Result<void> MoveResult	(	TimeValue	timeout = TIMEVALUE_INFINITE,
		WAITMODE	mode = WAITMODE::DEFAULT
	)

Waits until this job has been executed and returns the result via std::move.

Note

You may only use MoveResult() if you can ensure that nobody else will ask for the result of the job. THREADSAFE.

Parameters

[in]	timeout	Maximum wait interval (or TIMEVALUE_INFINITE for no time-out).
[in]	mode	WAITMODE::DEFAULT by default. WAITMODE::RETURN_ON_CANCEL means that Wait() will return if the caller has been cancelled even if the condition has not been set yet.

Returns

OK on success.

ParallelInvoke()

Result<void> maxon::ParallelInvoke	(	Bool	parallel,
		ARGS &&...	args
	)

Executes multiple functions in parallel and waits until they have finished. The parallel flag should be used for recursive code and set to false once the work item size is so small it wouldn't make sense to parallelize it any further. Please note that using ParallelInvoke() to parallelize a recursive algorithm is handy but will never perform as good as using a parallelized non-recursive algorithm because of the required synchronization at each recursion level. Execution of the parallel code is guaranteed - even under low memory conditions. If the lambdas do not return Result<void> the routine will return OK.

Parameters

[in]	parallel	True for parallel execution, false if amount of work has become very small.
[in]	args	Callable objects, usually lambdas.

Template Parameters

ARGS	Parameter types.

Returns

OK on success. Will only return an error if a lambda returns one via Result<void>. Please note that you'll receive an AggregatedError here that contains the errors created in the lambda and not the errors directly.

ExecuteOnMainThread

auto ExecuteOnMainThread ( FN &&  fn, WAITMODE  waitMode, TimeValue  wait  ) -> decltype(fn())

friend

Executes a lambda on the main thread and returns its result (if any). If the current thread is the main thread the lambda is executed directly. Otherwise a job will be enqueued and the function waits until it has finished. If the job does not return any values and can be executed asynchronously you might specify DONT_WAIT as waitMode parameter. The job is always guaranteed to be executed and this method will only return an error if the lambda does.

Parameters

[in]	fn	Lambda object with the code to be executed.
[in]	waitMode	DONT_WAIT if you don't want to wait, otherwise it defines the waitMode of the operation. Useful values are WAITMODE::RETURN_ON_CANCEL if you want to return on thrread cancelation to prevent dead locks
[in]	timeout	The time to wait for the execution (infinite by default).

Returns

Return value of the lambda.
