Public Member Functions
	WorkQueue (Context *context)
	Construct.
	~WorkQueue ()
	Destruct.
void	CreateThreads (unsigned numThreads)
	Create worker threads. Can only be called once.
SharedPtr< WorkItem >	GetFreeItem ()
	Get pointer to an usable WorkItem from the item pool. Allocate one if no more free items.
void	AddWorkItem (SharedPtr< WorkItem > item)
	Add a work item and resume worker threads.
bool	RemoveWorkItem (SharedPtr< WorkItem > item)
	Remove a work item before it has started executing. Return true if successfully removed.
unsigned	RemoveWorkItems (const Vector< SharedPtr< WorkItem > > &items)
	Remove a number of work items before they have started executing. Return the number of items successfully removed.
void	Pause ()
	Pause worker threads.
void	Resume ()
	Resume worker threads.
void	Complete (unsigned priority)
	Finish all queued work which has at least the specified priority. Main thread will also execute priority work. Pause worker threads if no more work remains.
void	SetTolerance (int tolerance)
	Set the pool telerance before it starts deleting pool items.
void	SetNonThreadedWorkMs (int ms)
	Set how many milliseconds maximum per frame to spend on low-priority work, when there are no worker threads.
unsigned	GetNumThreads () const
	Return number of worker threads.
bool	IsCompleted (unsigned priority) const
	Return whether all work with at least the specified priority is finished.
bool	IsCompleting () const
	Return whether the queue is currently completing work in the main thread.
int	GetTolerance () const
	Return the pool tolerance.
int	GetNonThreadedWorkMs () const
	Return how many milliseconds maximum to spend on non-threaded low-priority work.
Public Member Functions inherited from Urho3D::Object
	Object (Context *context)
	Construct.
virtual	~Object ()
	Destruct. Clean up self from event sender & receiver structures.
virtual StringHash	GetType () const =0
	Return type hash.
virtual const String &	GetTypeName () const =0
	Return type name.
virtual const TypeInfo *	GetTypeInfo () const =0
	Return type info.
virtual void	OnEvent (Object *sender, StringHash eventType, VariantMap &eventData)
	Handle event.
bool	IsInstanceOf (StringHash type) const
	Check current instance is type of specified type.
bool	IsInstanceOf (const TypeInfo *typeInfo) const
	Check current instance is type of specified type.
template<typename T >
bool	IsInstanceOf () const
	Check current instance is type of specified class.
void	SubscribeToEvent (StringHash eventType, EventHandler *handler)
	Subscribe to an event that can be sent by any sender.
void	SubscribeToEvent (Object *sender, StringHash eventType, EventHandler *handler)
	Subscribe to a specific sender's event.
void	UnsubscribeFromEvent (StringHash eventType)
	Unsubscribe from an event.
void	UnsubscribeFromEvent (Object *sender, StringHash eventType)
	Unsubscribe from a specific sender's event.
void	UnsubscribeFromEvents (Object *sender)
	Unsubscribe from a specific sender's events.
void	UnsubscribeFromAllEvents ()
	Unsubscribe from all events.
void	UnsubscribeFromAllEventsExcept (const PODVector< StringHash > &exceptions, bool onlyUserData)
	Unsubscribe from all events except those listed, and optionally only those with userdata (script registered events.)
void	SendEvent (StringHash eventType)
	Send event to all subscribers.
void	SendEvent (StringHash eventType, VariantMap &eventData)
	Send event with parameters to all subscribers.
VariantMap &	GetEventDataMap () const
	Return a preallocated map for event data. Used for optimization to avoid constant re-allocation of event data maps.
Context *	GetContext () const
	Return execution context.
const Variant &	GetGlobalVar (StringHash key) const
	Return global variable based on key.
const VariantMap &	GetGlobalVars () const
	Return all global variables.
void	SetGlobalVar (StringHash key, const Variant &value)
	Set global variable with the respective key and value.
Object *	GetSubsystem (StringHash type) const
	Return subsystem by type.
Object *	GetEventSender () const
	Return active event sender. Null outside event handling.
EventHandler *	GetEventHandler () const
	Return active event handler. Null outside event handling.
bool	HasSubscribedToEvent (StringHash eventType) const
	Return whether has subscribed to an event without specific sender.
bool	HasSubscribedToEvent (Object *sender, StringHash eventType) const
	Return whether has subscribed to a specific sender's event.
bool	HasEventHandlers () const
	Return whether has subscribed to any event.
template<class T >
T *	GetSubsystem () const
	Template version of returning a subsystem.
const String &	GetCategory () const
	Return object category. Categories are (optionally) registered along with the object factory. Return an empty string if the object category is not registered.
Public Member Functions inherited from Urho3D::RefCounted
	RefCounted ()
	Construct. Allocate the reference count structure and set an initial self weak reference.
virtual	~RefCounted ()
	Destruct. Mark as expired and also delete the reference count structure if no outside weak references exist.
void	AddRef ()
	Increment reference count. Can also be called outside of a SharedPtr for traditional reference counting.
void	ReleaseRef ()
	Decrement reference count and delete self if no more references. Can also be called outside of a SharedPtr for traditional reference counting.
int	Refs () const
	Return reference count.
int	WeakRefs () const
	Return weak reference count.
RefCount *	RefCountPtr ()
	Return pointer to the reference count structure.

Private Member Functions

void	ProcessItems (unsigned threadIndex)
	Process work items until shut down. Called by the worker threads.
void	PurgeCompleted (unsigned priority)
	Purge completed work items which have at least the specified priority, and send completion events as necessary.
void	PurgePool ()
	Purge the pool to reduce allocation where its unneeded.
void	ReturnToPool (SharedPtr< WorkItem > &item)
	Return a work item to the pool.
void	HandleBeginFrame (StringHash eventType, VariantMap &eventData)
	Handle frame start event. Purge completed work from the main thread queue, and perform work if no threads at all.

Private Attributes
Vector< SharedPtr< WorkerThread > >	threads_
	Worker threads.

	Work item prioritized queue for worker threads. Pointers are guaranteed to be valid (point to workItems.)
Mutex	queueMutex_
	Worker queue mutex.
volatile bool	shutDown_
	Shutting down flag.
volatile bool	pausing_
	Pausing flag. Indicates the worker threads should not contend for the queue mutex.
