ThreadSafeQueue

What is this?

This is an interactive app of moving a point in a display, using a thread-safe queue. The queue is implemented in the pthread library.

Requirements

Tested on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

• Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (other distro probably also works)
• gcc
• pthread

Install & Run

1. Clone this repository

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/maronuu/ThreadSafeQueue.git

2. Build

cd ~/ThreadSafeQueue
make

3. Run

cd ~/ThreadSafeQueue/build
./main

4. Enter the destination (y, x) of the point @ until you're satisfied.

The point @ will move to the destination.

You don't have to wait until it stops! Your input is to be pushed into a thread-safe queue, which can store and provide designated points to threads safely.

5. (Optional) Run queueTest to check if the queue is thread-safe.

cd ~/ThreadSafeQueue/build
./queueTest

The output will be

Success!
