综述
多线程是程序设计中的一个重要方面,尤其是在服务器Deamon程序方面。无论何种系统,线程调度的开销都比传统的进程要快得多。 Python可以方便地支持多线程。可以快速创建线程、互斥锁、信号量等等元素,支持线程读写同步互斥。美中不足的是,Python的运行在Python 虚拟机上,创建的多线程可能是虚拟的线程,需要由Python虚拟机来轮询调度,这大大降低了Python多线程的可用性。希望高版本的Python可以解决这个问题,发挥多CPU的最大效率。 网上有些朋友说要获得真正多CPU的好处,有两种方法: 1.可以创建多个进程而不是线程,进程数和cpu一样多。2.使用Jython 或 IronPython,可以得到真正的多线程。 闲话少说,下面看看Python如何建立线程 Python线程创建 使用threading模块的 Thread类 类接口如下 class Thread( group=None, taget=None, name=None, args=(), kwargs={}) 需要关注的参数是target和args. target 是需要子线程运行的目标函数,args是函数的参数,以tuple的形式传递。 以下代码创建一个指向函数worker 的子线程 def worker(a_tid,a_account):
…
th = threading.Thread(target=worker,args=(i,acc) ) ;
启动这个线程 th.start() 等待线程返回 threading.Thread.join(th)或者th.join() 如果你可以对要处理的数据进行很好的划分,而且线程之间无须通信,那么你可以使用:创建=》运行=》回收的方式编写你的多线程程序。但是如果线程之间需要访问共同的对象,则需要引入互斥锁或者信号量对资源进行互斥访问。 下面讲讲如何创建互斥锁 创建锁
g_mutex = threading.Lock()
….
使用锁
for … :
#锁定,从下一句代码到释放前互斥访问
g_mutex.acquire()
a_account.deposite(1)
#释放
g_mutex.release()
import threading
def worker(a_tid,a_account):
global g_mutex
print “Str ” , a_tid, datetime.datetime.now()
for i in range(1000000):
#g_mutex.acquire()
a_account.deposite(1)
#g_mutex.release()
print “End ” , a_tid , datetime.datetime.now()
class Account:
def __init__ (self, a_base ):
self.m_amount=a_base
def deposite(self,a_amount):
self.m_amount+=a_amount
def withdraw(self,a_amount):
self.m_amount-=a_amount
if __name__ == “__main__”:
global g_mutex
count = 0
dstart = datetime.datetime.now()
print “Main Thread Start At: ” , dstart
#init thread_pool
thread_pool = []
#init mutex
g_mutex = threading.Lock()
# init thread items
acc = Account(100)
for i in range(10):
th = threading.Thread(target=worker,args=(i,acc) ) ;
thread_pool.append(th)
# start threads one by one
for i in range(10):
thread_pool[i].start()
#collect all threads
for i in range(10):
threading.Thread.join(thread_pool[i])
dend = datetime.datetime.now()
print “count=”,acc.m_amount
print “Main Thread End at: ” ,dend , ” time span ” , dend-dstart;
