当上面的代码被编译和执行时,它会产生下列结果:
$ g++ -Wno-write-strings test.cpp -lpthread -o test.o
$ ./test.o
main() : creating thread, 0
main() : creating thread, 1
main() : creating thread, 2
main() : creating thread, 3
main() : creating thread, 4
Thread ID : 3 Message : This is message
Thread ID : 2 Message : This is message
Thread ID : 0 Message : This is message
Thread ID : 1 Message : This is message
Thread ID : 4 Message : This is message
连接和分离线程
我们可以使用以下两个函数来连接或分离线程:
pthread_join (threadid, status)
pthread_detach (threadid)
pthread_join() 子程序阻碍调用程序,直到指定的 threadid 线程终止为止。当创建一个线程时,它的某个属性会定义它是否是可连接的(joinable)或可分离的(detached)。只有创建时定义为可连接的线程才可以被连接。如果线程创建时被定义为可分离的,则它永远也不能被连接。
这个实例演示了如何使用 pthread_join() 函数来等待线程的完成。
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <pthread.h>
#include <unistd.h>
using namespace std;
#define NUM_THREADS 5
void *wait(void *t)
{
int i;
long tid;
tid = (long)t;
sleep(1);
cout << "Sleeping in thread " << endl;
cout << "Thread with id : " << tid << " ...exiting " << endl;
pthread_exit(NULL);
}
int main ()
{
int rc;
int i;
pthread_t threads[NUM_THREADS];
pthread_attr_t attr;
void *status;
// 初始化并设置线程为可连接的(joinable)
pthread_attr_init(&attr);
pthread_attr_setdetachstate(&attr, PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE);
for( i=0; i < NUM_THREADS; i++ ){
cout << "main() : creating thread, " << i << endl;
rc = pthread_create(&threads[i], NULL, wait, (void *)i );
if (rc){
cout << "Error:unable to create thread," << rc << endl;
exit(-1);
}
}
// 删除属性,并等待其他线程
pthread_attr_destroy(&attr);
for( i=0; i < NUM_THREADS; i++ ){
rc = pthread_join(threads[i], &status);
if (rc){
cout << "Error:unable to join," << rc << endl;
exit(-1);
}
cout << "Main: completed thread id :" << i ;
cout << " exiting with status :" << status << endl;
}
cout << "Main: program exiting." << endl;
pthread_exit(NULL);
}
当上面的代码被编译和执行时,它会产生下列结果:
main() : creating thread, 0
main() : creating thread, 1
main() : creating thread, 2
main() : creating thread, 3
main() : creating thread, 4
Sleeping in thread
Thread with id : 4 ...exiting
Sleep
