Class TFindThread

TFindThread

Support

Supported from 5.0

Description

Searches for threads by pattern matching against the names of (Kernel side) thread objects.

The match pattern can be set into this object at construction; it can also be changed at any time after construction by using TFindHandleBase::Find().

After construction, call TFindThread::Next() repeatedly to find successive threads whose names match the current pattern. A successful call to TFindThread::Next() means that a matching thread has been found. To open a handle on this thread, call Rthread::Open() and pass a reference to this TFindThread.

Derivation

TFindHandleBaseBase class for searching for global Kernel objects
TFindThreadSearches for threads by pattern matching against the names of (Kernel side) thread objects

Defined in TFindThread:
Next(), TFindThread()

Inherited from TFindHandleBase:
Find(), Handle()


Construction and destruction


TFindThread()

TFindThread();

Description

Constructs this object with a default match pattern. The default match pattern, as implemented by the base class, is the single character “*”.

A new match pattern can be set after construction by calling TFindHandleBase::Find().

Next()

TInt Next(TFullName& aResult);

Description

Returns the full name of the next global thread which matches the match pattern.

Parameters

TFullName& aResult

A reference to a TBuf descriptor with a defined maximum length. If a matching global thread is found, its full name is set into this descriptor. If no matching global thread is found, the descriptor length is set to zero.

Return value

TInt

KErrNone if successful, otherwise KErrNotFound or another of the system-wide error codes.
