CK_COHORT_TRYLOCK_PROTOTYPE(3)              DragonFly Library Functions Manual

NAME
     CK_COHORT_TRYLOCK_PROTOTYPE - define cohort type with specified lock
     types

LIBRARY
     Concurrency Kit (libck, -lck)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <ck_cohort.h>

     CK_COHORT_TRYLOCK_PROTOTYPE(COHORT_NAME cohort_name,
         LOCK_FXN global_lock_method, LOCK_FXN global_unlock_method,
         BOOL_LOCK_FXN global_locked_method,
         BOOL_LOCK_FXN global_trylock_method, LOCK_FXN local_lock_method,
         LOCK_FXN local_unlock_method, BOOL_LOCK_FXN local_locked_method,
         BOOL_LOCK_FXN local_trylock_method);

DESCRIPTION
     The ck_cohort.h header file does not define any cohort types.  Instead,
     the user must use the CK_COHORT_PROTOTYPE or CK_COHORT_TRYLOCK_PROTOTYPE
     macros to define any types they want to use.  They must use
     CK_COHORT_TRYLOCK_PROTOTYPE if they want their cohort type to have
     support for trylock operations.  The CK_COHORT_TRYLOCK_PROTOTYPE macro
     takes the following arguments:

     cohort_name : An identifier used for this cohort type.  This will have to
     be passed to each of the other CK_COHORT macros.
     global_lock_method : The method that should be called to acquire the
     global lock
     global_unlock_method : The method that should be called to relinquish the
     global lock
     global_locked_method : This method should return true iff the global lock
     is acquired by a thread.
     global_trylock_method : The method that should be called to try to
     acquire the global lock.  It should not block and return true iff the
     lock was successfully acquired.
     local_lock_method : The method that should be called to acquire the local
     lock
     local_unlock_method : The method that should be called to relinquish the
     local lock
     global_locked_method : This method should return true iff the global lock
     is acquired by a thread.
     local_trylock_method : The method that should be called to try to acquire
     the local lock.  It should not block and return true iff the lock was
     successfully acquired.

     Instances of the defined cohort type can be declared as:
         CK_COHORT_INSTANCE(cohort_name) cohort;
