IThreadProxy Structure

An abstraction for a thread of execution. Depending on the SchedulerType policy key of the scheduler you create, the Resource Manager will grant you a thread proxy that is backed by either a regular Win32 thread or a user-mode schedulable (UMS) thread. UMS threads are supported on 64-bit operating systems with version Windows 7 and higher.

Public Methods

Name	Description
IThreadProxy::GetId Method	Returns a unique identifier for the thread proxy.
IThreadProxy::SwitchOut Method	Blocks the currently executing thread proxy until it can be resumed by an available virtual processor root.
IThreadProxy::SwitchTo Method	Performs a cooperative context switch from the currently executing context to a different one.
IThreadProxy::YieldToSystem Method	Causes the calling thread to yield execution to another thread that is ready to run on the current processor. The operating system selects the next thread to be executed.

Remarks

Thread proxies are coupled to execution contexts represented by the interface IExecutionContext as a means of dispatching work.
