e_flag_new ()

EFlag *
e_flag_new (void);

Creates a new EFlag object. It is initially unset.

Since: 1.12

e_flag_is_set ()

gboolean
e_flag_is_set (EFlag *flag);

Returns the state of flag .

Since: 1.12

e_flag_set ()

void
e_flag_set (EFlag *flag);

Sets flag . All threads waiting on flag are woken up. Threads that call e_flag_wait() or e_flag_wait_until() once flag is set will not block at all.

Since: 1.12

e_flag_clear ()

void
e_flag_clear (EFlag *flag);

Unsets flag . Subsequent calls to e_flag_wait() or e_flag_wait_until() will block until flag is set.

Since: 1.12

e_flag_wait ()

void
e_flag_wait (EFlag *flag);

Blocks until flag is set. If flag is already set, the function returns immediately.

Since: 1.12

e_flag_wait_until ()

gboolean
e_flag_wait_until (EFlag *flag,
                   gint64 end_time);

Blocks until flag is set, or until the time specified by end_time . If flag is already set, the function returns immediately. The return value indicates the state of flag after waiting.

To easily calculate end_time , a combination of g_get_monotonic_time() and G_TIME_SPAN_SECOND macro.

Since: 3.8

e_flag_free ()

void
e_flag_free (EFlag *flag);

Destroys flag .

Since: 1.12

e_flag_timed_wait ()

gboolean
e_flag_timed_wait (EFlag *flag,
                   GTimeVal *abs_time);

Blocks until flag is set, or until the time specified by abs_time . If flag is already set, the function returns immediately. The return value indicates the state of flag after waiting.

If abs_time is NULL, e_flag_timed_wait() acts like e_flag_wait().

To easily calculate abs_time , a combination of g_get_current_time() and g_time_val_add() can be used.

Since: 1.12
