About The Project

This project is all about building a multithreaded application to devise a means to distribute tasks between threads so they can be processed concurrently.

Queues are good devices for transferring work items from one thread to another. In this repository I’ll discuss the design of a work queue class implemented in C++ that can be used with Threads class objects to easily build a multithreaded application.

Built With

Getting Started

  1. Get the source code of Threads, which is a java like implementation of posix threads encapsulated cleanly in a single C++ class i.e. clone both this repository as well as above repository in the same folder using
git clone https://github.com/shie-ld/threads.git
git clone https://github.com/shie-ld/work-queue.git
  1. cd to the threads directory.
  2. Type make to build the threads program.
  3. cd .. to jump back to previous directory.
  4. cd to the work-queue directory.
  5. Type make to build the work-queue program.
  6. Run the test application as ./wqueue.

Prerequisites

  1. A C++ compiler, like g++ or cc or clang.
  2. make utility.

Both of them mostly come preinstalled in a typical linux distribution like Ubuntu.
