SUA + Visual Studio + pthreads
- by vasek7
Hi,
I cannot compile this code under SUA:
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <pthread.h>
void * thread_function(void *arg) {
printf("thread_function started. Arg was %s\n", (char *)arg);
// pause for 3 seconds
sleep(3);
// exit and return a message to another thread
// that may be waiting for us to finish
pthread_exit ("thread one all done");
}
int main() {
int res;
pthread_t a_thread;
void *thread_result;
// create a thread that starts to run ‘thread_function’
pthread_create (&a_thread, NULL,
thread_function, (void*)"thread one");
printf("Waiting for thread to finish...\n");
// now wait for new thread to finish
// and get any returned message in ‘thread_result’
pthread_join(a_thread, &thread_result);
printf("Thread joined, it returned %s\n", (char *)thread_result);
exit(0);
}
I'm running on Windows 7 Ultimate x64 with Visual Studio 2008 and 2010 and I have installed:
Windows Subsystem for UNIX
Utilities and SDK for Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications in Microsoft Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2
Include directories property of Visual Studio project is set to "C:\Windows\SUA\usr\include"
What I have to configure in order to compile and run (and possibly debug) pthreads programs in Visual Studio 2010 (or 2008)?
