थ्रेड आईडी द्वारा एक विशेष थ्रेड को रद्द करने के लिए threa_cancel () का उपयोग किया जाता है। यह फ़ंक्शन समाप्ति के लिए थ्रेड को एक रद्दीकरण अनुरोध भेजता है। pthread_cancel() का सिंटैक्स नीचे जैसा है -
int pthread_cancel(pthread_t th);
अब, आइए देखें कि इस फ़ंक्शन का उपयोग करके थ्रेड्स को कैसे रद्द किया जाए।
उदाहरण
#include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <pthread.h> int count = 0; pthread_t sample_thread; void* thread_one_func(void* p) { while (1) { printf("This is thread 1\n"); sleep(1); // wait for 1 seconds count++; if (count == 5) { //if the counter is 5, then request to cancel thread two and exit from current thread pthread_cancel(sample_thread); pthread_exit(NULL); } } } void* thread_two_func(void* p) { sample_thread = pthread_self(); //store the id of thread 2 while (1) { printf("This is thread 2\n"); sleep(2); // wit for 2 seconds } } main() { pthread_t t1, t2; //create two threads pthread_create(&t1, NULL, thread_one_func, NULL); pthread_create(&t2, NULL, thread_two_func, NULL); //wait for completing threads pthread_join(t1, NULL); pthread_join(t2, NULL); }
