Function Documentation

void zypp::thread::callOnce (  OnceFlag &  flag, void(*)()  func )  [inline]

Call once function. The purpose of callOnce is to ensure that a piece of initialization code is executed at most once. The OnceFlag flag has to point to a static or extern variable, that was statically initialized to ZYPP_ONCE_INIT. The first time callOnce is called with a given onceFlag argument, it calls fuct with no argument and changes the value of flag to indicate that the function has been run. Subsequent calls with the same once flag does nothing. Definition at line 50 of file Once.h. Referenced by globalFreeOnce(), and globalInitOnce().
