ACE线程之ACE_Thread_Mutex互斥锁

    互斥体实现了互相排斥（mutual exclusion）同步的简单形式。互斥体禁止多个线程同时进入受保护的代码临界区（critical section）。因此，在任意时刻，只有一个线程被允许进入这样代码保护区。

    任何线程在进入临界区之前，必须获取acquire与此区域相关的互斥体的所有权。如果已有另一线程拥有了临界区互斥体，其他线程就不能再进入其中。这些线程必须等待，知道当前的属主线程释放release该互斥体。

    什么时候需要使用互斥体呢？互斥体用于保护共享的易变代码，也就是，全局或静态数据。这样的数据必须通过互斥体进行保护，以防止它们在多个线程同时访问时损坏。 

如下示例：

#include <QtCore/QCoreApplication>
#include "ace/Synch.h"
#include "ace/Log_Msg.h"   //ace_debug
#include "ace/OS_NS_stdio.h"   ///ACE_OS::printf
#include "ace/Thread.h"

struct Args
{
public:
	Args(int iterations):mutex_(),iterations_(iterations) {}
	ACE_Thread_Mutex mutex_;
	int iterations_;
};

///the starting point for the worker threads
static void* worker(void *arguments)
{
	Args *arg= (Args*) arguments;
	for(int i=0; i<arg->iterations_; i++)
	{
		ACE_DEBUG((LM_DEBUG,"(%t) Trying to get a hold of this iteration\n"));

		///this is our critical section
		arg->mutex_.acquire();      ///acquire: 获得
		ACE_DEBUG((LM_DEBUG,"(%t) This is iteration number %d\n",i));
		ACE_OS::sleep(2);

		//simulate critical（关键，临界） work
		arg->mutex_.release();
	}
	return 0;
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	QCoreApplication a(argc, argv);
	
	if(argc<2)
	{
		ACE_OS::printf("Usage: %s <number_of_threads> <num_of_iterations>\n",argv[0]);
		ACE_OS::exit(1);
	}

	Args arg(ACE_OS::atoi(argv[2]));
	//setup the arguments
	int n_threads= ACE_OS::atoi(argv[1]);

	ACE_thread_t *threadID=new ACE_thread_t[n_threads+1];          ///DWORD
	ACE_hthread_t *threadHandles=new ACE_hthread_t[n_threads+1];   ///HANDLE
	if(ACE_Thread::spawn_n(threadID,    id's for each of the threads
		                 n_threads,   number of threads to spawn
						 (ACE_THR_FUNC)worker, ///entry point for new thread
						 &arg,        args to worker
						 THR_JOINABLE | THR_NEW_LWP,  //flags
						 ACE_DEFAULT_THREAD_PRIORITY,
						 0,0,threadHandles)==-1)
	{
		ACE_DEBUG((LM_DEBUG,"Error in spawning thread\n"));
	}
	for(int i=0; i<n_threads; i++)
		ACE_Thread::join(threadHandles[i]);

	return 0;///a.exec();
}
