Hi,
I am trying to use ThreadPool.RegisterWaitForSingleObject to add a timer to a set of threads. I create 9 threads and am trying to give each of them an equal chance of operation as at the moment there seems to be a little starvation going on if I just add them to the thread pool. I am also trying to implement a manual reset event as I want all 9 threads to exit before continuing.
What is the best way to ensure that each thread in the threadpool gets an equal chance at running as the function that I am calling has a loop and it seems that each thread (or whichever one runs first) gets stuck in it and the others don't get a chance to run.
resetEvents = new ManualResetEvent[table_seats];
//Spawn 9 threads
for (int i = 0; i < table_seats; i++)
{
resetEvents[i] = new ManualResetEvent(false);
//AutoResetEvent ev = new AutoResetEvent(false);
RegisteredWaitHandle handle = ThreadPool.RegisterWaitForSingleObject(autoEvent, ObserveSeat, (object)i, 100, false);
}
//wait for threads to exit
WaitHandle.WaitAll(resetEvents);
However, it doesn't matter if I use resetEvents[] or ev neither seem to work properly. Am I able to implement this or am I (probably) misunderstanding how they should work.
Thanks, R.
