Condition Variables

← Back to Synchronization Primitives

Synchronization primitives that allow threads to wait until a particular condition is met. A thread releases a mutex and sleeps on the condition variable; another thread signals/notifies when the condition changes, waking the waiting thread. Always used with a mutex and a predicate check loop.
