使用指针向量创建线程

Question

ok new try,

i changed my code from a normal vector<Individual> to vector<shared_ptr<Individual>> . since that, my threading code doesn't work and i don't have a clue on how to fix it. Start() is a void member of Individual, but how do i call it if there are only pointers to those?

std::vector<thread> threads;
for (int i=0;i<(Individuals.size()-howManyChampions-howManyMutations);i++) {
    threads.push_back(thread(&Individual::start,&Individuals.at(i)));
    if (threads.size() % 5 == 0) {
        for(auto& thread : threads){
            thread.join();
        }
        threads.clear();
    }
}
for(auto& thread : threads){
    thread.join();
}

it works when i change it back to just vector and the non-parallel version:

 for (int i=0;i<(int)Individuals.size();i++) {
    Individuals.at(i)->start();
}

works like a charm, too. So i assume there is something wrong at the thread push_back? error messages (roughly translated) are:

Try this :

threads.push_back(thread(&Individual::start,Individuals.at(i).get()));

You can access the pointer hold by a shared_ptr with get method. However you should make sure that you do not dispose all instances of this shared_ptr before you join all threads or else they will have a dangling pointer of Individual .
