Hello,

Can u be more specific? Are you referring to std::condition_variable ? Thats in C++1x which is not available in online IDE.

You can refer to: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/pthread_cond_timedwait.html

Let me explain more specific:

The mbed rtos library implement thread, semaphore, mutex, thread signal, but lack of condition variable(cv), the condition variable is often used with mutex, is there any way i can implement cv in rtos library?

I am actually using GCC_ARM, is std::condition_variable supported by GCC_ARM?
