# Runner::Context

<a id="context"></a>

# Context

```cpp
#include <icy/runner.h>

struct Context
```

[Defined in src/base/include/icy/runner.h:87](https://github.com/auscaster/icey/blob/main/src/base/include/icy/runner.h#L87)

[Context](#context) object which we send to the thread context.

This intermediate object allows us to garecefully handle late invokebacks and so avoid the need for deferred destruction of [`Runner`](https://auscaster.com/icey/docs/api-reference/icy-Runner.md#runner) objects.

## Public Methods

| Return | Name | Description |
|--------|------|-------------|
| `void` | [`reset`](#reset-6) `inline` | Resets the context to its initial state so it can be reused. The implementation must call this before restarting a [`Runner`](https://auscaster.com/icey/docs/api-reference/icy-Runner.md#runner). |
|  | [`Context`](#context-1) `inline` | Default constructor; calls [`reset()`](#reset-6) to initialize fields. |

### reset

`inline`

```cpp
inline void reset()
```
