Members

Typedefs

Name	Description
runtime_object_identity	Each message instance has an identity that follows it as it is cloned and passed between messaging components. This cannot be the address of the message object.
TaskProc	An elementary abstraction for a task, defined as *void (__cdecl TaskProc)(void ). A TaskProc* is called to invoke the body of a task.

Classes

Name	Description
agent Class	A class intended to be used as a base class for all independent agents. It is used to hide state from other agents and interact via message-passing.
bad_target Class	This class describes an exception that is thrown whenever a messaging block is given a pointer to a target which is invalid for the operation being performed.
call Class	A call messaging block is a multi-source, ordered target_block that invokes a specified function when receiving a message.
choice Class	A choice messaging block is a multi-source, single-target block that represents a control-flow interaction with a set of sources. The choice block will wait for any one of multiple sources to produce a message and will propagate the index of the source that produced the message.
combinable Class	The combinable<T> object is intended to provide thread-private copies of data, to perform lock-free thread-local sub-computations during parallel algorithms. At the end of the parallel operation, the thread-private sub-computations can then be merged into a final result. This class can be used instead of a shared variable, and can result in a performance improvement if there would otherwise be a lot of contention on that shared variable.
concurrent_queue Class	The concurrent_queue class is a sequence container class that allows first-in, first-out access to its elements. It enables a limited set of concurrency-safe operations, such as push and try_pop, to name a few.
concurrent_vector Class	The concurrent_vector class is a sequence container class that allows random access to any element. It enables concurrency-safe append, element access, iterator access and iterator traversal operations.
Context Class	Represents an abstraction for an execution context.
context_self_unblock Class	This class describes an exception that is thrown whenever the Unblock method of a Context object is called from the same context. This would indicate an attempt by a given context to unblock itself.

improper_scheduler_reference Class	This class describes an exception that is thrown whenever the Reference method is called on a Scheduler object that is shutting down, from a context that is not part of that scheduler.
invalid_link_target Class	This class describes an exception that is thrown whenever the link_target method of a messaging block is called and the messaging block is unable to link to the target. This may be the result of exceeding the number of links the messaging block is allowed or attempting to link a specific target twice to the same source.
invalid_multiple_scheduling Class	This class describes an exception that is thrown when a task_handle object is scheduled multiple times via the run method of a task_group or structured_task_group object without an intervening call to either the wait or run_and_wait methods.

reader_writer_lock Class	A writer-preference queue-based reader-writer lock with local only spinning. The lock grants first in - first out (FIFO) access to writers and starves readers under a continuous load of writers.
ScheduleGroup Class	Represents an abstraction for a schedule group. Schedule groups organize a set of related work that benefits from being scheduled close together either temporally, by executing another task in the same group before moving to another group, or spatially, by executing multiple items within the same group on the same NUMA node or physical socket.

Structures

Name	Description
DispatchState Structure	The DispatchState structure is used to transfer state to the IExecutionContext::Dispatch method. It describes the circumstances under which the Dispatch method is invoked on an IExecutionContext interface.
IExecutionContext Structure	An interface to an execution context which can run on a given virtual processor and be cooperatively context switched.
IExecutionResource Structure	An abstraction for a hardware thread.
IResourceManager Structure	An interface to the Concurrency Runtime's Resource Manager. This is the interface by which schedulers communicate with the Resource Manager.
IScheduler Structure	An interface to an abstraction of a work scheduler. The Concurrency Runtime's Resource Manager uses this interface to communicate with work schedulers.
ISchedulerProxy Structure	The interface by which schedulers communicate with the Concurrency Runtime's Resource Manager to negotiate resource allocation.
IThreadProxy Structure	An abstraction for a thread of execution. Depending on the SchedulerType policy key of the scheduler you create, the Resource Manager will grant you a thread proxy that is backed by either a regular Win32 thread or a user-mode schedulable (UMS) thread. UMS threads are supported on 64-bit operating systems with version Windows 7 and higher.
IUMSCompletionList Structure	Represents a UMS completion list. When a UMS thread blocks, the scheduler's designated scheduling context is dispatched in order to make a decision of what to schedule on the underlying virtual processor root while the original thread is blocked. When the original thread unblocks, the operating system queues it to the completion list which is accessible through this interface. The scheduler can query the completion list on the designated scheduling context or any other place it searches for work.
IUMSScheduler Structure	An interface to an abstraction of a work scheduler that wants the Concurrency Runtime's Resource Manager to hand it user-mode schedulable (UMS) threads. The Resource Manager uses this interface to communicate with UMS thread schedulers. The IUMSScheduler interface inherits from the IScheduler interface.
IUMSThreadProxy Structure	An abstraction for a thread of execution. If you want your scheduler to be granted user-mode schedulable (UMS) threads, set the value for the scheduler policy element SchedulerKind to UmsThreadDefault, and implement the IUMSScheduler interface. UMS threads are only supported on 64-bit operating systems with version Windows 7 and higher.
IUMSUnblockNotification Structure	Represents a notification from the Resource Manager that a thread proxy which blocked and triggered a return to the scheduler's designated scheduling context has unblocked and is ready to be scheduled. This interface is invalid once the thread proxy's associated execution context, returned from the GetContext method, is rescheduled.
IVirtualProcessorRoot Structure	An abstraction for a hardware thread on which a thread proxy can execute.

Enumerations

Name	Description
agent_status Enumeration	The valid states for an agent.
ConcRT_EventType Enumeration	The types of events that can be traced using the tracing functionality offered by the Concurrency Runtime.

DynamicProgressFeedbackType Enumeration	Used by the DynamicProgressFeedback policy to describe whether resources for the scheduler will be rebalanced according to statistical information gathered from the scheduler or only based on virtual processors going in and out of the idle state through calls to the Activate and Deactivate methods on the IVirtualProcessorRoot interface. For more information on available scheduler policies, see PolicyElementKey Enumeration.
join_type Enumeration	The type of a join messaging block.
message_status Enumeration	The valid responses for an offer of a message object to a block.

Each function object could be a lambda expression, a pointer to function, or any object that supports the function call operator with the signature void operator()().
receive Function	Overloaded. A general receive implementation, allowing a context to wait for data from exactly one source and filter the values that are accepted.
send Function	Overloaded. A synchronous send operation, which waits until the target either accepts or declines the message.
swap Function	Exchanges the elements of two concurrent_vector objects.
try_receive Function	Overloaded. A general try-receive implementation, allowing a context to look for data from exactly one source and filter the values that are accepted. If the data is not ready, the method will return false.
