Create Threads in a loop

Question

I just tested something like this:

boost::thread workerThread1(boost::bind(&Class::Function, this, ...);
boost::thread workerThread2(boost::bind(&Cla         


        

Answer 1

Why don't you use boost::thread_group? You can create/add/remove threads and join them all (boost::thread_group::join_all()).

boost::thread_group tgroup;
for(...)
{
  tgroup.create_thread(boost::bind(&Class::Function, this, ...)) ;
}
tgroup.join_all();

But be careful about the number threads you are creating, too many threads may lead to OutOfMemory.
