Event

The Event() function is used to create a thread event object, which is used for synchronization between threads, allowing one thread to wait for notification or signal from another thread.

The Event() function returns a ThreadEvent object.

    var cEvent = threading.Event()
    var productionQuantity = 10
    var producerThread = threading.Thread(producer, productionQuantity, dict, pEvent, cEvent)
    var consumerThread = threading.Thread(consumer, productionQuantity, dict, pEvent, cEvent)

Two concurrent threads access a common resource.

It supports backtesting system and live trading environment.
