I have a requirement of executing a callback function on exit of a std::thread and the callback function should be executed on the main thread.
On thread creation I need to detach the thread and cannot block the main loop execution for thread completion.
i tried using std::signal but that does not seem to execute callback function on the main thread
#include <thread>
#include <csignal>
#include <iostream>
std::thread::id main_thread_id;
void func2()
{
for(int i = 0; i < 10000000; i++)
{
// do something
}
}
void func()
{
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
func2();
}
std::raise(SIGUSR1);
}
void callback(int signal)
{
std::cout << "SIGNAL: " << signal << " THREAD ID:" <<
std::this_thread::get_id() << std::endl;
bool b = std::this_thread::get_id() == main_thread_id;
std::cout << "IS EXECUTED ON MAIN THREAD: " << b << std::endl;
}
int main()
{
main_thread_id = std::this_thread::get_id();
std::cout << "MAIN THREAD ID: " << std::this_thread::get_id() << std::endl;
std::signal(SIGUSR1, callback);
std::thread t1(func);
t1.detach();
for(int i = 0; i < 20; i++)
{
func2();
}
if(t1.joinable())
t1.join();
}
The result I get is that the callback function is not executed on main thread. Please suggest a way in which I can create a worker thread and call a callback function on main thread upon exit of the thread.
Thanks for the help
