Member Function Documentation

execute()

virtual void SimTK::ParallelExecutor::Task::execute ( int  index )

pure virtual

This method defines the task to be performed.

When the Task is passed to a ParallelExecutor's execute() method, this method will be called in parallel the specified number of times.

initialize()

virtual void SimTK::ParallelExecutor::Task::initialize ( )

inlinevirtual

This method is invoked once by each worker thread before the task is executed.

This can be used to initialize thread-local storage.

finish()

virtual void SimTK::ParallelExecutor::Task::finish ( )

inlinevirtual

This method is invoked once by each worker thread after all invocations of the task on that thread are complete.

This can be used to clean up thread-local storage, or to record per-thread results. All calls to this method are synchronized, so it can safely write to global variables without danger of interference between worker threads.
