Struct Thread

pub struct Thread { /* private fields */ }

Available on crate feature process only.

A thread inside a Windows process.

Implementations

impl Thread

pub fn current() -> Self

Constructs a special handle that always points to the current thread.

When transferred to a different thread, it will point to that thread when used from it.

pub fn from_id<I>(id: I) -> Result<Self>

where I: Into<ThreadId>,

Tries to acquire a thread handle from an ID.

This may fail due to insufficient access rights.

pub fn begin_background_mode() -> Result<()>

Sets the current thread to background processing mode.

This will also lower the I/O priority of the thread, which will lower the impact of heavy disk I/O on other threads and processes.

pub fn end_background_mode() -> Result<()>

Ends background processing mode for the current thread.

pub fn set_priority(&mut self, priority: ThreadPriority) -> Result<(), Error>

Sets the priority of the thread.

Examples

use winapi_easy::process::{Thread, ThreadPriority};

Thread::current().set_priority(ThreadPriority::Normal)?;

pub fn get_id(&self) -> ThreadId

Trait Implementations
