Re: [Boost-users] Determining thread existence

8 Apr 2009

      What I am trying to do is remove threads from the thread group after 
they have run. So that when my daemon iterates it will start new threads 
if none exist.

Here is my current code modified so that it will build without any extra 
dependencies.

#include 
#include 
#include <sstream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int sayHello(int x){
    cout << "Hello world from thread: " << x << endl;

    return 0;
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {

    boost::thread_group Tg;
    cout << "Thread Size Before: " << Tg.size() << endl;
    for(int i = 1; i < 25; i++){
        //dmParse parse;
        //Tg.create_thread(boost::bind(&dmParse::onInit,parse,i));
        Tg.create_thread(boost::bind(sayHello,i));
    }
    cout << "Thread Size: " << Tg.size() << endl;
    Tg.join_all();

    cout << "Thread Count After:" << Tg.size() << endl;
}

Anyone have any insight as to why these threads are not being 
terminated? I have been doing a lot of different tests to determine 
where it might be going wrong. And thus far, I have not been able to 
find exactly where or why the threads will not join properly.
[code that won't compile snipped]
a) What makes you think that the threads aren't being terminated?
b) It would be a lot more helpful if you provide code that compiles 
doesn't have dependencies others are unlikely to have.
A full set of includes at the top would also have helped.
After modifying your code I'm not sure what your problem is.
join_all/interrupt_all will not remove threads from the thread group.
