c mysql 超时,如何在c ++中超时mysql ++查询

I am using mysql++ in order to connect to a MySQL database to perform a bunch of data queries. Due to the fact that the tables I am reading from are constantly being written to, and that I need a consistent view of the data, I lock the tables first. However, MySQL has no concept of 'NOWAIT' in its lock query, thus if the tables are locked by something else that keeps them locked for a long time, my application sits there waiting. What I want it to do is to be able to return and say something like 'Lock could no be obtained' and try again in a few seconds. My general attempt at this timeout is below.

If I run this after locking the table on the database, I get the message that the timeout is hit, but I don't know how to then get the mysql_query line to terminate. I'd appreciate any help/ideas!

volatile sig_atomic_t success = 1;

void catch_alarm(int sig) {

cout << "Timeout reached" << endl;

success = 0;

signal(sig,catch_alarm);

}

// connect to db etc.

// *SNIP

signal (SIGALRM, catch_alarm);

alarm(2);

mysql_query(p_connection,"LOCK TABLES XYZ as write");

You can implement a "cancel-like" behavior this way:

You execute the query on a separate thread, that keeps running whether or not the timeout occurs. The timeout occurs on the main thread, and sets a variable to "1" marking that it occurred. Then you do whatever you want to do on your main thread.

The query thread, once the query completes, checks if the timeout has occurred. If it hasn't, it does the rest of the work it needs to do. If it HAS, it just unlocks the tables it just locked.

I know it sounds a bit wasteful, but the lock-unlock period should be basically instantaneous, and you get as close to the result you want as possible.
