#include "slapi-plugin.h"
Slapi_CondVar *slapi_new_condvar( Slapi_Mutex *mutex );

Parameters

The function has the following parameters:

mutex

Pointer to an Slapi_Mutex structure representing the mutex that you want used to protect this condition variable.

Returns. A pointer to the new Slapi_CondVar structure, or NULL if memory cannot be allocated.

Description. This function creates a new condition variable and returns a pointer to the Slapi_CondVar structure. You can create the Slapi_Mutex structure by calling the slapi_new_mutex() function.

To wait on the condition variable, call the slapi_wait_condvar() function. To notify waiting threads, call the slapi_notify_condvar() function.

When you are done working with this Slapi_CondVar structure, call the slapi_destroy_condvar() function to free the structure from memory.
