Method Detail

getMutexHandler

MutexHandler getMutexHandler()

This method returns the object that implements the functionality for handling mutexes. It returns null, if no handler is set. If this method returns null, the wrapper does not pass any callback functions to the underlying module; i.e. is passes null-pointer for the functions.

Returns:

The handler object for mutex functionality, or null, if there is no handler for mutexes.

isLibraryCantCreateOsThreads

boolean isLibraryCantCreateOsThreads()

Check, if application threads which are executing calls to the library may not use native operating system calls to spawn new threads.

Returns:

True, if application threads which are executing calls to the library may not use native operating system calls to spawn new threads. False, if they may.

isOsLockingOk

boolean isOsLockingOk()

Check, if the library can use the native operation system threading model for locking.

Returns:

True, if the library can use the native operation system threading model for locking. Fasle, otherwise.
