Member Function Documentation

DeleteMutex()

virtual void RixThreadUtils::DeleteMutex ( RixMutex *  mutex ) const

pure virtual

Used to delete a RixMutex object.

NewMutex()

virtual RixMutex* RixThreadUtils::NewMutex ( ) const

pure virtual

Get a new RixMutex object. NOTE: It must be deleted with DeleteMutex.

ParallelFor() [1/2]

virtual void RixThreadUtils::ParallelFor ( size_t  start, size_t  end, const RixFunction< void(size_t)> &  fn  ) const

pure virtual

Performs parallel iteration over a range of values using the RenderMan thread scheduler. Calls to ParallelFor can be nested to parallelize complex loops and perform automatic load balancing. The typical use of ParallelFor is in combination with C++11 lambdas:

RixThreadUtils* rtu = (RixThreadUtils*)ctx->GetRixInterface(k_RixThreadUtils);

// Simple parallel loop rtu->ParallelFor(0, 1000, [&](size_t i) { some_computation(i); });

// Nested parallel loop rtu->ParallelFor(0, 1000, [&](size_t i) { // Pay attention on how the nested lambda captures "i" by value. rtu->ParallelFor(0, 1000, [&, i](size_t j) { some_computation(i, j); } });

ParallelFor() [2/2]

virtual void RixThreadUtils::ParallelFor ( size_t  start, size_t  end, size_t  step, const RixFunction< void(size_t)> &  fn  ) const

pure virtual
