5 Definitions

Definitions are sorted by export status, category, package, and then by lexicographic order.


5.1 Public Interface


5.1.1 Macros

Macro: spawn (&body body)

Like (spawn-thread (lambda () ...)).
If the first form in BODY is a string, that string is used as the name of the thread.

Package

moira.

Source

spawn.lisp.


5.1.2 Ordinary functions

Function: list-monitored-threads ()
Package

moira.

Source

moira.lisp.

Function: make-thread-saving-id (thunk &rest args)

Like ‘bt:make-thread’, but save the id of the resulting thread so it can be retrieved later with ‘moira:thread-id’.

Using ‘moira:make-thread-saving-id’ lets you start a thread that is not monitored, but does have its ID tracked.

Package

moira.

Source

spawn.lisp.

Function: save-current-thread-id ()
Package

moira.

Source

thread-ids-linux.lisp.

Function: spawn-thread (thunk &key name)

Run THUNK as a thread, automatically respawning if the thread exits abnormally.

Package

moira.

Source

spawn.lisp.

Function: start-monitor ()
Package

moira.

Source

monitor.lisp.

Function: stop-monitor ()
Package

moira.

Source

monitor.lisp.

Function: thread-id (thread)
Package

moira.

Source

thread-ids.lisp.


5.1.3 Standalone methods

Method: initialize-instance :after ((self monitored-thread) &key)
Source

moira.lisp.

Method: print-object ((self monitored-thread) stream)
Source

moira.lisp.

moira.

Source

Function: id-thread (id)
Package

moira.

Source

thread-ids.lisp.

Function: make-thread-and-wait (thunk &rest args)

Like ‘make-thread-saving-id’, but wait to return until the thread is actually running.

Package

Source

spawn.lisp.

Function: monitor-loop ()
Package

moira.
