Threading
Abstract
The mere mention of multithreading can strike fear in the hearts of some, while it can fire up others for a good challenge. The fact of the matter is that multithreading, which we’ll call threading from now on, is an area filled with challenges. Threading bugs can be some of the hardest bugs to find, due to their asynchronous nature. In fact, some threading bugs don’t even rear their ugly head until you run your application on a multiprocessor machine, since that’s the only way to get true concurrent multithreading. For this reason, anyone developing a multithreaded application should test on a multiprocessor machine. Otherwise, you run the risk of sending your product out the door with lurking threading bugs.KeywordsException HandlerWork ItemSync BlockMain ThreadWork ThreadThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
