Thread communication in iOS?

Could someone explain to me how to manage thread communication in swift3 iOS? I did some research and I found the gcd that manage threads but I need some thing else, I need to notify (send a message or something) thread x that thread y is done or in general to notify the state of that thread, is there any equivalent of thread communication like in java?(notify(), notifyAll(), wait()) but in iOS? thank you

Solution

  • If you don't want to use GCD, you could take a look at multithreading features in conjunction with the NSThread class, like NSCondition, or more general, the ThreadSafety guide.
