Detailed Description

template<class T>
class ccxx::RunnableDelegate< T >

An adapter object that implements the Runnable interface and delegates to an arbitrary method (one that must have no arguments or return value) in some other object.

This allows a class to have multiple methods that will execute asynchronously in their own threads. For example, consider the class:

class MyClass
{
  public:

  MyClass();
  ~MyClass();

  void thread1();
  void thread2();
};

Given an instance of MyClass, the following construct causes a new thread to begin executing in the thread1() method of that instance.

MyClass mc;

RunnableDelegate<MyClass> runnable(&mc, &MyClass::thread1);
Thread thread(&runnable);
thread.start();
