OmniFrameworks ThreadSafety:Further - Some classes to simplify thread-safe code

From the Omni Group website:

OmniFoundation is The Omni Group's extension to Apple's Foundation framework. Besides several extremely useful extensions to Apple Foundation classes, OmniFoundation provides a horde of unique and powerful classes. Among the more interesting are:

  • OFStringScanner? - A blindingly fast unicode-safe alternative to NSStringScanner?, for when you really need to burn through those character streams.
  • OFRegularExpression - Powerful regular expression processing wrapped in an Objective-C shell. Combine with OFStringScanner? for extra fun.
  • OFTrie? - Implementation of the popular trie data structure. Interfaces to OFStringScanner? for rapid scanning of "longest" token elements.
  • OFMessageQueue? & OFQueueProcessor? - Writing stable multithreaded applications is an error prone process. These classes help de-fang the savage beast.

OmniFoundation is a veritable treasure chest of programming goodies. Take a look for yourself at http://www.omnigroup.com/developer/sourcecode/
