Examples

int

{
    {
      // Binary semaphore.
      semaphore_binary sp1;
      sp1.post ();
    }

      // Named binary semaphore.
      semaphore_binary sp2
        { "sp2" };
 
      sp2.post ();
      sp2.wait ();
 
      sp2.post ();
      sp2.try_wait ();

      semaphore_counting sp3
        { "sp3", 7 };

    }
 
    {
      // Named counting semaphore with custom initial value.

Typedef Documentation

count_t

using os::rtos::semaphore::count_t = int16_t

Type of semaphore counter storage.

A numeric value enough to hold the semaphore counter, usually a 16-bits signed value.

Definition at line 75 of file os-semaphore.h.

Variable Documentation

initializer_binary

const semaphore::attributes_binary os::rtos::semaphore::initializer_binary { 0 }

static

Default binary semaphore initialiser.

This variable is used by the default constructor.

Definition at line 213 of file os-semaphore.h.

max_count_value

constexpr count_t os::rtos::semaphore::max_count_value = 0x7FFF

staticconstexpr

Maximum semaphore value.

Used to validate the semaphore initial count and max count.

Definition at line 83 of file os-semaphore.h.
