problem using posix_threads

Make software boundle — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 11:21:46 GMT

The error I got when I compile the code are:

ld: (Warning) Unsatisfied symbol "_Unwind_SetIP" in file /usr/lib/hpux64/libCsup.so.1

And the compiling arguments I am using are:

cc -o mysqlbackup $(FILES) $(INC) -lpthread -mt -D_REENTRANT -I. -O +DD64 +DSitanium2 /usr/lib/hpux64/libApiDS64.sl

This works fine on none HP-UX systems, but on HP-UX, the function:
pthread_join( threads[loop*2], (void **) &rc[loop*2]);

core dumps, and replacing this with:

pthread_join( threads[loop*2+1], (void **) NULL);

causes the TSM to have corrupted data...

Please help me, I am stucked here.

Regards Tomas

>The error I got when I compile the code are:

These are link errors, not compile. This indicates you haven't read how to mix C with aC++ shlibs:
http://docs.hp.com/en/14487/distributing.htm#linking

In particular, -lunwind is missing. Or you should be linking with aCC.

/usr/lib/hpux64/libApiDS64.sl should be replaced by just -lApiDS64.

What is the type of rc? It better be a void* or long array/pointer.

>replacing this with:
pthread_join(threads[loop*2+1], (void**)NULL);

I'm not sure why you are using loop*2+1?
It is ok that value_ptr is NULL.

Thanks Dennis,

I changed the linking to what you mentioned, which removed the errors above.
And also the "hint" you gaved me with the "join" problems is now solved.

Even though that I send a integer from the pthread_exit, and that the pthread_join recieve this as an integer, it seams that the type is somewhat long anyway?
Maybee I should have put some castings in the exit and join.

Anyway I changed the recieving "rc[]" from an integer type to a long which solved that part.

Now the remaining problem looks more as a ibm TSM related problem.

Many many thanks

No, you send a void* to pthread_exit.

>pthread_join receive this as an integer

No, it receives it as a void*.

>it seams that the type is somewhat long anyway?

long and void* have the same size.

Everything work now after the last casting corrections in the code.
Many thanks.
