Detailed Description

contains all functions to demo thread synch

Note

set DEBUG to true in globals to turn on debug output file-wide, or uncomment it inside a class to enable class-specific debug output.

needs to be compiled with flag -pthread.

Function Documentation

debugPrinter() [1/3]

void debugPrinter	(	int	id,
		std::string	msg
	)

DEBUG PRINTER function.

Parameters

id	an integer that defines thread number (0 for main)
msg	a string containing message to be printed

Prints to standard out

Warning

NOT thread-safe; must be called within a thread-safe scope

Definition at line 44 of file main.cpp.

debugPrinter() [2/3]

void debugPrinter	(	int	id,
		int	next_thd
	)

Definition at line 58 of file main.cpp.

debugPrinter() [3/3]

void debugPrinter	(	int	id,
		std::string	msg,
		int	next_thd
	)

Definition at line 73 of file main.cpp.

main()

int main

(

)

create an array of NUM_THDS thread objects

create a pseudo-random engine

wait for 3 seconds

Definition at line 176 of file main.cpp.

thd_printer()

void thd_printer	(	int	id,
		std::string	msg
	)

thread print function

Parameters

id	an integer that defines thread number
msg	a string containing message to be printed

Prints to standard out

Warning

NOT thread-safe; must be called within a thread-safe scope

Definition at line 90 of file main.cpp.

thd_worker()

void thd_worker	(	const int	id,
		int &	next_thd,
		std::default_random_engine &	rand_e
	)

thread worker function

Parameters

id	an integer passed by val defining current thread number
next_thd	an integer passed by ref that keeps track of thread order
rand_e	a pseudo-random number generator engine passed by ref

Upon startup, function blocks on condition_signal. Upon receipt of condition_signal, function sleeps at random for between 1 and 5 seconds, then signals next thread and goes back to blocking on condition_signal.
