I've been out of the game for a while with C++ but as I read your post, I was reminded of some classes I wrote to manage multiple threads. Also, Bartosz Milewski of Reliable Software - Creators of the distributed version control system, Code Co-op wrote a really cool critical section class wrapper that totally protects against accidentally leaving a lock in place. His discussion of how resource management is the key to reliable message driven software was well done and he had numerous ways to protect against leaving resources open or laying around that would cause memory leaks or hangs. Here it is:
Code:
// CriticalSection.h
//
// A class using Resource Management technique(RM: see
// http://www.relisoft.com/resource/resource.html for
// discussion) to handle critical section code that
// guarantees no memory leaks or open locks.

dimbl(1) General Commands Manual dimbl(1)NAME
dimbl - Distributed Timbl
SYNOPSYS
dimbl [timbl options] [-S <num of threads>]
DESCRIPTION
dimbl extends timbl with the possibility to run the classification task on multiple threads. This is done by splitting up the Instancebase
in parts that are handled in parallel. Every test instance is tested against each partial Instancebase. The results are merged and then
the k Nearest Neighbours are calculated.
NOTES
dimbl only works for the IB1 variants of timbl.
Not all timbl options are fully supported.
Documentation is lacking.
OPTIONS -S <threads>
run the server on 'threads' parallel threads.
all timbl options are documenented in timbl(1)
dimbl handles most of them in the same way as timbl except for
-i filename
and
-I filename
-I will create 'threads' Instancebase files and store their names in 'filename' together with the name of the weighting file.
-i will use such a file to read back in 'threads' Instancebases for a classifying task. The -S option is ignored in that case. dimbl will
use the number of files found in 'filename'.
BUGS
possibly
