Subject: Re: [Boost-users] Determining thread existence

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.
Here is my my recent code.
int sayHello(int x){
cout << "Hello world from thread: " << x << endl;
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
InitConfig mconfig;
if(mconfig.setConfig()){
boost::thread_group Tg;
// int pid;
//
// if(fork()) return 0;
//
// chdir("/");
// setsid();
// umask(0);
//
// pid = fork();
//
// if(pid){
// printf("Daemon Started: %d\n", pid);
// return 0;
// }
//while(1){
//if(Tg.size() == 0){
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();
Tg.interrupt_all();
cout << "Thread Count After:" << Tg.size() << endl;
//}else{
//cout << "Threads Running, taking a nap. Thread Count: " <<
Tg.size() << endl;
//sleep(60);
//}
//}
}
}
