多线程学习4——使用用户界面线程

 使用用户界面线程

  创建一个用户界面线程比一个工作者线程复杂的多：前者必须要从CWinThread派生一个类，并重载一些成员函数。调用AfxBeginThread开始一个用户界面线程与开始一个工作者线程很相似，只是工作者线程的控制函数和参数被指向CWinThread导出类的对象的指针多代替。此时，AfxBeginThread调用之后也不再运行控制函数，而是调用线程对性的InitInstance函数。

 

  具体步骤：

（1）从CWinThread派生一个线程类，重载成员函数：

• InitInstanc 必须重载。而且在类的声明和实现中必须使用DECLARE_DYNCREATE和IMPLEMENT_DYNCREATE宏。
• CWinThread的其他几个函数可以根据需要选择是否重载。
• 在CWinThread的Run成员函数中，会获取线程的窗口消息，它将这些消息送给PreTranslateMessage处理。可以重载这个函数，将在这些消息通过MFC的标准消息路线发送。
• CWinThread的数据成员，包含：线程ID、线程句柄以及指向程序的主窗口的指针。其中M_bAtoDelete成员决定线程结束时对象是否被删除。
• 利用CWinThread的SuspendThread和ResumeThread函数可以从外部控制线程。SuspendThread使线程的挂起次数增加，而ResumeThread则使之减少。如果线程的挂起次数不为0，操作系统将不对其进行调度。二者应该配对使用。

CWinThread Members

Base Class Members

CObject Members

CCmdTarget Members

Data Members

m_bAutoDelete	Specifies whether to destroy the object at thread termination.
m_hThread	Handle to the current thread.
m_nThreadID	ID of the current thread.
m_pActiveWnd	Pointer to the main window of the container application when an OLE server is in-place active.
m_pMainWnd	Holds a pointer to the application's main window.

Construction

CreateThread	Starts execution of a CWinThread object.
CWinThread	Constructs a CWinThread object.

Operations

GetMainWnd	Retrieves a pointer to the main window for the thread.
GetThreadPriority	Gets the priority of the current thread.
PostThreadMessage	Posts a message to another CWinThread object.
ResumeThread	Decrements a thread's suspend count.
SetThreadPriority	Sets the priority of the current thread.
SuspendThread	Increments a thread's suspend count.

Overridables

ExitInstance	Override to clean up when your thread terminates.
InitInstance	Override to perform thread instance initialization.
IsIdleMessage	Checks for special messages.
OnIdle	Override to perform thread-specific idle-time processing.
PreTranslateMessage	Filters messages before they are dispatched to the Windows functions TranslateMessage and DispatchMessage.
ProcessMessageFilter	Intercepts certain messages before they reach the application.
ProcessWndProcException	Intercepts all unhandled exceptions thrown by the thread's message and command handlers.
PumpMessage	Contains the thread's message loop.
Run	Controlling function for threads with a message pump. Override to customize the default message loop.

Operators

operator HANDLE

Retrieves the handle of the CWinThread object.

（2）调用AfxBeginThread函数：

CWinThread *AfxBeginThread(

     CRuntimeClass* pThreadClass,

     int nPriority = THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL,

     UINT nStackSize = 0,

     DWORD dwCreateFlags = 0,

     LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES lpSecurityAttrs = NULL

);

 

注：pThreadClass它指向一个CRuntimeClass对象，该对象由RUNTIME_CLASS宏从CWinThread的派生类创建。
