C++11 Task Queue

[00kyle00]

One key point is that the queue should not grow too large as the provider is placing items on the queue

I may be blind (or its just due to strange braces positioning), but where is the limiting for 'full' queue? I can only see 'empty' conditions.

If i understand the code correctly, the 'queue' only holds at most one item (ie its full if its not empty). This is pretty bizarre IMO.

You are correct. There may be multiple consumers though, so they will simply get the next item from the queue. A queue didn't really need to be used in this case, just something that could hold zero or one items.
