Abnormal producer consumer problem driving me nuts
normally, i hate asking someone to do my homework for me but am getting desperate right now.
i have a project about consumer producer problem. the deadline is tonight at 23:55. but i havent gotten it working yet. i just COULDNT get it to work right yet.
the problem is as follows: the C - program will prompt for the following integer inputs:
Code:
m: the number of producer threads
n: the number of consumer threads
k: the size of the bounded buffer array
i: the number of candy items to be filled in each box
j: the number of candy items produced by each producer thread before it quits
now each producer thread produces a specific candy item, and each consumer thread takes an item out of the buffer one at a time. say producer1 produces red, prducer2 blue and so on.. as for consumer threads. after a given consumer thread has filled a given box; it prints the contents of the box as follows:
Consumer thread A filled a new box of candy containing: blue 3, red 7, green 8, ...
if you dont have the time to waste on beginngers' coding: atleast please hint out on how i should plan my work, because may be my problem is in the code structure. thanks
my head is now throbbing i can nolonger even think straight. anyhelp will be deeply appreciated. thanks in advance.

Control two exclusively shared resources. The two resources are two files. The producer will write even numbers to one file, and odd numbers to another one. The consumer respectively reads from each file until it gets 5 even numbers and 5 odd numbers.
