Re: [Boost-users] [Boost-user]multithreaded app hangs in boost libraries
Can you please describe a bit more? How do you start your threads (before your app enters main or from the main)? Is there any chance, that you create threads and afterwards leave main? Try to build in some simple logging mechanism, which will produce logs to cout from your threads and main as well... Do not forget to lock access to cout. Try may be create an instance of a global object, which will output log message from its constructor. With Kind Regards, Ovanes Markarian On Thu, July 5, 2007 15:05, Farberov, Inga wrote:
Hello,
I have written a static library that uses boost program_options, threads, date-time and serialization libraries. There is also an extensive use of shared_ptr.
I am working on a multithreaded application, so when I link my library into the executable, I use multithreaded versions of the boost libraries. When I compile my library and application that links to it, I use -pthread flag in attempt to make it multi-threaded.
Everything compiles and links without a problem, however when I try to run the application, it hangs. I have tried to bedug it and when I suspend a hanging thread it gives me following stack trace:

If this post sounds familiar, that's because this is my second attempt to get this problem resolved.
Previously I have been told that this sounds like I've built my application with single-threading, and linked it to multi-threaded build of a boost library, or vice versa.
Could you please let me know what's the right way to build my app with multi-threading.
I am using Boost 1.34 libraries on Linux and compile with gcc 3.4.6
Thank you in advance for your help,
Inga

My application actually hangs in the initialization phase, before I even get a chance to start any threads - in the main thread. The stacktrace that I have attached resulted from a call to init program_options object.
