From: Andrew on 8 Dec 2009 09:19 I am designing a system where an app will need to spawn a child thread then the child and parent thread will need to communicate. If this was in java I would use ConcurrentLinkedQueue but what to do in C++? I have googled and searched boost but cannot find anything. There is a class that would serve in ACE but ACE is huge so I do not want to introduce ACE to the project. The project is already using boost and fighting the battle for more boost usage is hard enough. Does anyone know if such a facility is planned for the upcoming std?

Alternatively, there is one in Intel TBB as well. -- [ See http://www.gotw.ca/resources/clcm.htm for info about ] [ comp.lang.c++.moderated. First time posters: Do this! ]

The design of the ACE message queue is given in "Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture" Volume 2 by Schmidt et. al. It is not too hard to code into your program, provided you have access to a pthreads library. hth, Robert Kindred > > Regards, > > Andrew Marlow -- [ See http://www.gotw.ca/resources/clcm.htm for info about ] [ comp.lang.c++.moderated.

There is an example implementation of a queue that uses boost on my blog: http://www.justsoftwaresolutions.co.uk/threading/implementing-a-thread-safe-queue-using-condition-variables.html Anthony -- Author of C++ Concurrency in Action http://www.stdthread.co.uk/book/ just::thread C++0x thread library http://www.stdthread.co.uk Just Software Solutions Ltd http://www.justsoftwaresolutions.co.uk 15 Carrallack Mews, St Just, Cornwall, TR19 7UL, UK.

They have concurrent_hash_map concurrent_queue concurrent_vector We use the concurrent_queue for the producer/consumer. It works well. -- [ See http://www.gotw.ca/resources/clcm.htm for info about ] [ comp.lang.c++.moderated. First time posters: Do this! ] |
