Function std.parallelism.TaskPool.finish

Signals worker threads to terminate when the queue becomes empty.

void finish (
  bool blocking = false
) @trusted;

If blocking argument is true, wait for all worker threads to terminate before returning. This option might be used in applications where task results are never consumed-- e.g. when TaskPool is employed as a rudimentary scheduler for tasks which communicate by means other than return values.

Warning

Calling this function with blocking = true from a worker thread that is a member of the same TaskPool that finish is being called on will result in a deadlock.
