Problem Executing thread.

Problem Executing thread.

[Mukund JB.]

Hai all,
I have a query regarding the threads in Linux.
I wrote an application using the pthreads where in I was to read & write
asynchronously. The read  &* write functions are as follows :

void * read( void * X)
{
	int a =3D0;
	while(a< 1000)
	{
		printf("IN read thread %d\n",a);
		a++;
	}
	pthread_exit(0);
}

void * read( void * X)
{
	int b =3D0;
	while(b< 1000)
	{
		printf("IN write thread %d\n",b);
		b++;
	}
	pthread_exit(0);
}

The Output I get is just a series of 1000 read thread printf statements
and a series of 1000 write thread printf statements. Its like as
follows:-

IN read thread 0
IN read thread 1
IN read thread 2
IN read thread 3
.......
.......
.......
IN read thread 1000
IN write thread 0
IN write thread 1
IN write thread 2
IN write thread 3
.......
.......
.......
IN write thread 1000

Why is this happening?=20
Why are my threads getting executed one after the other rather than
simultaneously.


Thanks for the help in advance.

Mukund jampala

You didn't send all of the code and had hand altered what you posted
since both functions had the same name by the time you posted it to
the list - please resend it all.
