从不退出的C ++ boost :: thread

我的int main使用while(1)循环来运行我的代码。如果我想在进入while循环之前启动连续线程,它会是这样的吗?

int main ()
{
     boost::thread_group threads;
     threads.create_thread (check_database);
     while (1)
     {
          // main program
     }
}

void check_database_and_plc ()
{
     while (1)
     {
          // check database, and if it needs to take action, do so;
          // this function / thread will never stop;
          // it will continuously check a single value from mysql and take
          // action based on that number (if 1, write to PLC, if 2, change
          // screens, etc);
          // also check plc for any errors, if there are any, tell int main
     }
}

因此我有两个while循环同时运行。有一个更好的方法吗?感谢您的时间。

从你发表评论,我会(作为第一次尝试!)理解你需要这样的东西:

bool plc_error = false;
boost::condition_variable cv;
boost::mutex mutex;
int main ()
{
     boost::thread_group threads;
     threads.create_thread (check_database);
     while (1)
     {

          boost::mutex::scoped_lock lock(mutex);
          while(!plc_error)
              cv.wait(lock);
          // deal with the error
          plc_error = false;
     }
}

void check_database_and_plc ()
{
     while (1)
     {
          // sleep a bit to ensure main will not miss notify_one()
          // check database and plc
          if (error){
              plc_error = true;
              cv.notify_one();
          }
     }
}

我没有考虑终止并将该主题加入main,但我在评论中提供的链接应该对您有帮助。
