Trouble with multithreading

Hi,

I don't the difference between the wait|sleep|join states and the suspended
one. Could someone please explain this? O:-)

Any pointers to multithreading tutorials would be appreciated to.

Thanks :-)

SleepWaitJoin happens when the thread does one of the following:
1) Calls Thread.Sleep();
2) uses a thread synchonization primitive that is not signalled/free e.g. Monitor, Mutex, AutoResetEvent
3) Calls Join so synchronize with another thread

Suspended happens when someone calls Suspend on your thread (assuming they will probably call Resume at a later point)

Hi, I'm trying to learn multithreading and it doesn't seem to be working for me. I have a feeling it has to do with the fact that I'm writing to files rather than to printf, but maybe not. Basically, I wanted to see if it would be faster to write to 4 files at the same time (parallel) rather than 4 in a row (serially). however, when my multithreaded code executes, it seems to do them in order anyway (I expected to see Starting/Ending all...

I would like to know how to perform simple multithreading. I had created a simple form to test out if I was multithreading properly, but got buggy results. Sometime the whole thig would lock up when I got two threads going at the same time. What I have is two text boxes (textBox1 and textBox2) and four buttons(cmdStartThread1, cmdStartThread2, cmdStopThread1, cmdStopThread2)

Hello, I have set up a multithreading routine in a Test VB.net proj, and it appears to be working OK in debug mode and I am not using synchronization.

Hi, I have a serious issue using multithreading. A sample application showing my issue can be downloaded here: http://graphicsxp.free.fr/WindowsApplication11.zip The problem is that I need to call operations on Controls from a delegate, otherwise it does not work. However each time I've done an operation, I must update the progressbar and progresslabel, but this cannot be done in the delegate as it does not work.

Hello, Greetings! I'm looking for a solid C++ multithreading book. Can you recommend one? I don't think I've seen a multithreading C++ book that everybody thinks is good (like Effective C++ or Exceptional C++, for example). Platform-specific (e.g.: Win32, POSIX) is OK, as long as it's good :) Thank you, Ray

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
