How do I know if a boost thread is done ?
- by jules
I am using boost::thread to process messages in a queue.
When a first message comes I start a message processing thread.
When a second message comes I check if the message processing thread is done.
if it is done I start a new one
if it is not done I don nothing.
How do I know if the thread is done ? I tried with joinable() but it is not working, as when the thread is done, it is still joinable.
I also tried to interrupt the process at once, and add an interruption point at the end of my thread, but it did not work.
Thanks
