Threading Models and Critical Sections Classes

The following classes define a threading model and critical section:

  • CAtlAutoThreadModule Implements a thread-pooled, apartment-model COM server.

  • CAtlAutoThreadModuleT Provides methods for implementing a thread-pooled, apartment-model COM server.

  • CComMultiThreadModel Provides thread-safe methods for incrementing and decrementing a variable. Provides a critical section.

  • CComMultiThreadModelNoCS Provides thread-safe methods for incrementing and decrementing a variable. Does not provide a critical section.

  • CComSingleThreadModel Provides methods for incrementing and decrementing a variable. Does not provide a critical section.

  • CComObjectThreadModel Determines the appropriate threading-model class for a single object class.

  • CComGlobalsThreadModel Determines the appropriate threading-model class for an object that is globally available.

  • CComAutoCriticalSection Contains methods for obtaining and releasing a critical section. The critical section is automatically initialized.

  • CComCriticalSection Contains methods for obtaining and releasing a critical section. The critical section must be explicitly initialized.

  • CComFakeCriticalSection Mirrors the methods in CComCriticalSection without providing a critical section. The methods in CComFakeCriticalSection do nothing.

  • CRTThreadTraits Provides the creation function for a CRT thread. Use this class if the thread will use CRT functions.

  • Win32ThreadTraits Provides the creation function for a Windows thread. Use this class if the thread will not use CRT functions.
