I need to create a single class instance in web application that manage a queue of process. This class have multiple thread inside that look for queue and consume it.
What is the best why to do this?
I have apply singleton design pattern, but I don’t understand if have to create static or normal queue inside it. Some one can give me an example please?
SOLUTION
Ok thank you! This is my singleton class:
public sealed class MyWorkingSingletonClass
{
private static readonly ILog LOG = LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(MyWorkingSingletonClass));
private static MyWorkingSingletonClass instanza;
private static readonly object lockObject = new object();
private static ConcurrentQueue<Process> syncCoda = new ConcurrentQueue<Process>();
private MyWorkingSingletonClass()
{
}
public static MyWorkingSingletonClass Instanza
{
get
{
lock (lockObject)
{
if (instanza == null)
instanza = new PdfDucumentConverter();
return instanza;
}
}
}
public void AddProcess(Process p)
{
syncCoda.Enqueue(p);
}
public void Start()
{
Task.Factory.StartNew(WorkerTask2);
}
public static void WorkerTask2()
{
do
{
try
{
Process p;
if (syncCoda.TryDequeue(out p))
{
p.Start();
p.PriorityClass = ProcessPriorityClass.High;
p.WaitForExit();
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
LOG.Error(ex);
}
} while (true);
}
}
What you need is to implement new singleton class which inherits Concurrent Queue class which is thread-safe queue to ensure it will work in multi-thread environment:
