condition_variable_any::wait_for Method
Blocks a thread, and sets a time interval after which the thread unblocks.

class Lock,
class Rep,
class Period

bool wait_for(
Lock& Lck,
const chrono::duration<Rep,
Period>& Rel_time
);
template<
class Lock,
class Rep,
class Period,
class Predicate
>
bool wait_for(
Lock& Lck,
const chrono::duration<Rep,
Period>& Rel_time,
Predicate Pred
);
Parameters
Lck
A mutex object of any type.Rel_time
A chrono::duration object that specifies the amount of time before the thread wakes up.Pred
Any expression that returns true or false.
Return Value
The first method returns cv_status::timeout if the wait terminates when Rel_time has elapsed. Otherwise, the method returns cv_status::no_timeout.
The second method returns the value of Pred.
Remarks
The first method blocks until the condition_variable_any object is signaled by a call to notify_one or notify_all, or until the time interval Rel_time has elapsed. It can also wake up spuriously.
The second method in effect executes the following code.
while(!Pred())
if(wait_for(Lck, Rel_time) == cv_status::timeout)
return Pred();
return true;
