I’m getting a segmentation fault when I try to do
pthread_mutex_lock(&_mutex).
This is really odd, I’m not sure what might have caused it. I have initialized _mutex in the constructor with
pthread_mutex_init(&_mutex,NULL).
anything I can do?
solved it, and I am very annoyed at this.
I wanted to send a Producer* as an argument to the function the Pthread runs, so I used &(*iter), where iter is an iterator that runs on a producers vector.
little did I notice it was (rightfully) a vector< Producer* >, which meant I’ve been sending Producer* * which produced undefined results. grrrrr. Obviously, I didn’t notice this because Pthreads is in pure C and therefor uses void* as it’s only way of accepting any type of arguments.
