Description
TLazMonitor is a
TCriticalSection descendant which
implements a synchronization construct that provides thread-safe access to
resources. TLazMonitor extends the ancestor class to use a fixed number of
spinlock (or busy waiting) attempts in its Acquire method. Acquire also
yields CPU cycles to allow other threads to execute when fixed yield and/or
sleep threshold(s) have been reached.
TLazMonitor is used in the implementation of the
TLazThreadedQueue class, and in the
fppkg package.
