[Boost-users] Assertion `!pthread_mutex_destroy(&m)' failed

23 Jun 2009

      Hi, I have a small program that receives messages asynchronously (in their
own threads). I am using boost::mutexs to synchronize access.. Please refer
to the attached code.

boost::mutex	mtx_ticker_add;

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
    //Handler Ctrl-C
    signal(2, ctrl_c_handler);

    while (bRun) {
    	sleep(1);
    }
}

void ctrl_c_handler(int sig) {
	cout << "Received SIGTERM" << endl;

	bRun=false;
}

void onMessage( void *msg ){
	mtx_ticker_add.lock();
	//Do Stuff
	mtx_ticker_add.unlock();
}

the program works fine and responds to messages. however I get the following
error when i press CTRL-C

mysql_dealer:
/usr/local/include/boost-1_39/boost/thread/pthread/mutex.hpp:45:
boost::mutex::~mutex(): Assertion `!pthread_mutex_destroy(&m)' failed.

any help would be much appreciated.

thanks
Nishant
