- realtime application has multiple forms. each form is created on a new
(gui) thread. this was supposedly for efficiency reasons, i am told. this
was done before i took this project. it was done by some java people. they
claim this is the way it is done in java.
- project worked fine in .net 1.1
- on upgrade to .net 2.0, the app does not terminate. i have to debug it
using windbg, as the deadlocks get quite bad. usually the dealocks are
caused by DLL unloads. (LdrLock or similar).
-I've even tried Thread.Abort, ExitThread, Exit etc. no luck.
- is there anything i can do to get it to exit easily.

Yeah, it's called rewrite the program so that it works.
I've used this same pattern before: creating a number of threads, and then
having a window on each thread. I've generally done it for splash screens,
but it works fine for other uses. Nothing wrong with the general pattern at
all.
The big question is where is the thread lifetime management being done?
My guess is that you're going to want to:
- On the "main" thread, signal all the forms to shutdown. May need to be a
custom windows message.
- Wait for each control thread to terminate
- Terminate the main thread.
I've also had some luck, from a "quick and dirty" perspective, in setting
the Threads to be background threads. This has eliminated a number of
shutdown issues related to rogue threads. It's an ugly hack, and spending
the time to fix the bugs is probably the better bet.

Hi,
I frequently have to debug some fairly tricky Python multi-threaded
code, and I need some help using the debugger to help me diagnose the
problems when they occur. Yes, I know that the best option with threaded
code that is problematic is to rewrite it, but that's not really an
option that I have (right now).
What would really help me is to be able to see a list of all the
currently active threads, and the Python stack trace for...

Hi,
I have a multi-threaded application (have also tried as service - same

Threads are started normally, locks acquired and released as needed,
runs fine for some time, then stops - Visual Studio detects no
exceptions, and I have placed break points on all the handling code to
catch them. No errors / failures are logged, but child threads have all

I am very new to multi-threaded programming and have a need (I think)
to write an application that uses multi-threaded pages. My scenario
follows:
My business has multiple databases, multiple websites, like a
franchised business, and multiple branches that go to each website (22

In the stuff I've read about multi threaded singleton it seems to
assume that creating the Lock is atomic, and various sources,
including Sutter go for RAII.
{
Lock l;
if ( ! inst )....
}
But I don't see how to do this with a real O/S API.
The ones I've looked at have a two step process to making a lock, they
require a "Create" function and a "Start Locking" function.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
