Declaration: Scheduling.h

Taxonomy Categories:

Member Functions:

Interface Category:

API.

Inherits From:

TThreadSchedule

Inherited By:

None.

Instantiation:

Allocate on the heap or the stack.

Deriving Classes:

None.

Concurrency:

Not multithread safe.

Resource Use:

No special requirements.
