Hello, I have a question concerning this code which I want to run on QNX:
class ConcreteThread : public Thread
{
public:
ConcreteThread(int test)
{
testNumber = test;
}
void *start_routine()
{
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
sleep(1);
cout << testNumber << endl;
}
}
private:
int testNumber;
};
class Thread
{
public:
Thread(){};
int Create()
{
pthread_t m_id;
return pthread_create(&m_id, NULL, &(this->start_routine_trampoline), this);
}
protected:
virtual void *start_routine() = 0;
private:
static void *start_routine_trampoline(void *p)
{
Thread *pThis = (Thread *)p;
return pThis->start_routine();
}
};
Now, when I run this code without the sleep in *start_routine, it will simply print the number 10 times, before continuing on to the next line of code (sequential instead of parallel). However, when I use a sleep like in the code, it doesn't print any numbers at all and simply goes on to the next line of code. Why doesn't sleep work and how can I make a thread like this work, instead of running sequential?
