Mechanism that partitions threads to process user-defined jobs.
Declared in <bdlmt_threadmultiplexor.h>
class ThreadMultiplexor;This class provides a mechanism for facilitating the use of multiple threads to perform various user-defined functions ("jobs") when some degree of collaboration between threads is required. The thread multiplexor is configured with a total number of "processors", representing the number of threads that may process jobs at any particular time. Additional threads enqueue jobs to a pending job queue, which is processed by the next available processing thread.
