ThreadClass Documentation

This document provides a comprehensive overview of the ThreadClass, a fundamental building block in our framework.

Introduction

The ThreadClass is a core data structure representing a single thread of execution within a system. It's vital for managing concurrent operations, ensuring data consistency, and providing a stable foundation for complex asynchronous code.

Properties

name: String
value: Any type
is_shared: Boolean
lock: Boolean (default: false)
blocking: Boolean

Methods

join(): Returns the thread's current state (e.g., threadId, paused, running, etc.).
next(): Returns the thread's current state. Used in asynchronous operations.
wait(): Blocks until the thread is ready.
set_value(): Sets the thread's value.

Example

This example demonstrates how to use the ThreadClass to manage a simple task. Notice the 'join' method is called to ensure the task completes before proceeding.

```python

import threading

                def my_task(thread_id):
                    print(f"Thread {thread_id}: Starting task")
                    # Simulate some work
                    import time
                    time.sleep(2)
                    print(f"Thread {thread_id}: Finishing task")
                    return thread_id
