Multithreading in Linux environments with multithreaded programming (iii)

The first two articles describe the basics of multithreaded programming in a Linux environment, as well as a typical example. This article mainly compares the Linux environment and the Windows environment of multi-threaded programming differences.

Look at the technical problem to aim at its essence, whether it is WIN32, Linux or VxWorks, its related to the multi-threaded parts are those content, is nothing more than thread control and thread communication, many of their functions are only different names, the essence of the meaning is equivalent, Let's make a list of the three major operating systems in common. Detail form:

Matters	WIN32	Linux	VxWorks
Thread creation	CreateThread	Pthread_create	Taskspawn
Thread termination	Exit upon completion of execution; The thread itself calls the ExitThread function to terminate itself; Call function TerminateThread function by other thread	Exit upon completion of execution; Called by the thread itself pthread_exit exits; Call function Pthread_cance terminated by another thread	Exit upon completion of execution; Exit by calling exit from the thread itself; Call function Taskdelete terminated by another thread
Get thread ID	GetCurrentThreadID	Pthread_self	Taskidself
Create Mutex	CreateMutex	Pthread_mutex_init	Semmcreate
Get Mutex	WaitForSingleObject, WaitForMultipleObjects	Pthread_mutex_lock	Semtake
Release Mutex	ReleaseMutex	Phtread_mutex_unlock	Semgive
Create semaphore	CreateSemaphore	Sem_init	Sembcreate, Semccreate
Wait for the semaphore	WaitForSingleObject	Sem_wait	Semtake
Release semaphore	ReleaseSemaphore	Sem_post	Semgive
