Here is a little article I wrote about how to do a synchronized statement in C++ that works in a similar way to Java. It's not very important, nor does it relate to games or Allegro, but I think it is cool |

Thats kind of fun. I dont do a whole lot of multithreaded C++ work anymore but if I ever do I will surely use this. |

thats a nice trick, pity it doesn't scale well. ___________________________ |

Ah, yes, in my ideal world, etc, etc. But, hey, Rome wasn't built in a day. Nice one, Axilmar. |

Besodes scaling it also seems to lack portability __________ |

why would you start 2 of the same threads anyway ? ___________________________ |

Using RAII for mutexes should compile out to be the same code anyway. There's not a problem with it, in fact I use this idiom a lot. I don't understand the purpose of the flag attached to the mutex, though. Even if there was some overhead (I seriously expect there to be completely 0 overhead), I'd still use it since it is exception and return safe, and it is infinitely more convenient. I wouldn't go through the extras to make it look like Java. You can still do it in 1 line of code without the macro and it will look like normal C++. Gillius |
