- This implementation can be configured to provide rudimentary support
- for multi-threaded applications. This makes a different set of li-
- braries, e.g., libncursest since the binary interfaces are different.
+ The ncurses library can be configured to support multi-threaded
+ applications in a rudimentary way. Such configuration produces a
+ different set of libraries, named libncursest , for example, since doing
+ so alters ncurses 's application binary interface (ABI).
+
+ Instead of modifying the programming interface (API) to make ncurses
+ functions expect an additional argument specifying a thread, the
+ library adds functions, usable in any configuration, that hide the
+ mutexes (mutual exclusion locks) needed to prevent concurrent access to
+ variables shared by multiple threads of execution.
- Rather than modify the interfaces to pass a thread specifier to each
- function, it adds a few functions which can be used in any configura-
- tion which hide the mutex's needed to prevent concurrent use of the
- global variables when configured for threading.
+ ncurses threading support requires the use of functions to access
+ members of the WINDOW structure (see curs_opaque(3x) COLORS , COLOR_PAIRS ,
+ COLS , ESCDELAY , LINES , TABSIZE , curscr , newscr , and ttytype ,
+ maintaining them as as read-only values in the SCREEN structure.
- In addition to forcing access to members of the WINDOW structure to be
- via functions (see curs_opaque(3x) SCREEN structure.
+ Even this is not enough to make an application using curses thread-
+ safe. We would expect a multi-threaded application to have threads
+ updating separate windows (on the same device), and separate screens
+ (on different devices). Further, applications expect a few of the
+ global variables to be writable. The functions described here address
+ these special situations.
- Even this is not enough to make a thread-safe application using curses.
- A multi-threaded application would be expected to have threads updating
- separate windows (within the same device), or updating on separate
- screens (on different devices). Also, a few of the global variables
- are considered writable by some applications. The functions described
- here address these special situations.
+ The ESCDELAY and TABSIZE global variables are modified by some
+ applications. To modify them in any configuration, use the
+ set_escdelay or set_tabsize functions. Other global variables are not
+ modifiable. get_escdelay retrieves ESCDELAY 's value.
- The ESCDELAY and TABSIZE global variables are modified by some applica-
- tions. To modify them in any configuration, use the set_escdelay or
- set_tabsize functions. Other global variables are not modifiable.
+ The use_window and use_screen functions provide coarse-grained mutexes
+ for their respective WINDOW and SCREEN parameters; they call a user-
+ supplied function, pass it a data parameter, and return the value from
+ the user-supplied function to the application.
- The get_escdelay function returns the value for ESCDELAY.
- The use_window and use_screen functions provide coarse granularity mu-
- texes for their respective WINDOW and SCREEN parameters, and call a us-
- er-supplied function, passing it a data parameter, and returning the
- value from the user-supplied function to the application.
