Ok, so I asked copilotâ - LMAO!!!
It suggested, and I didn't think it made sense but I tried it, to change the class member declaration order to destruct the std::thread firstâ.
std::weak_ptr< CGlobals > m_wpGlobals;
std::unordered_map< boost::uuids::uuid, CSession, std::hash< boost::uuids::uuid > > m_sessions;
boost::shared_mutex m_mutex;
std::chrono::minutes m_nMinutesCleanupSession;
bool m_fRunning;
boost::mutex m_cvMutex;
boost::condition_variable m_cv;
std::thread m_thread;
I had it somewhere in the middle - but importantly above the m_cv and m_cvMutex.
I ran it thirty times or so and didn't get a race or an EBUSY. Granted this is no guarantee - but it always failed before within a few runs.
Oh, and I also changed this - but things still failed after this change.
~CShareMgr()
{
{
boost::lock_guard< boost::mutex > lock( m_cvMutex );
m_fRunning = false;
m_cv.notify_one(); // moved this up from below the block.
}
if ( m_thread.joinable() )
{
m_thread.join();
}
}
Does the change to destructing the std::thread() first make any sense to anyone at all? Cuz it doesn't make sense to me - the presumption is that the thread wasn't in a joinable state when joinable() was called?
A bit confused,
bien

Yeah, people have been telling me that for 35 years of writing C++ - the fact is that the compiler mangles every single name - as you well know... I literally have never encountered a single problem due to my coding style.
Yeah, the pattern looks correct to me as well - I mean if the m_cv and m_cvMutex are passing then the thread should exit, no?
It seems foolproof - the code that is - no reason it shouldn't exit the cleanup thread. I'd love for someone to poke holes in this theory.

No, I don't see a bug in the code you posted. (Assuming that m_thread
is joinable and executes _CleanupThread.)
Incidentally, underscore followed by a capital letter is reserved to the
implementation and you're not supposed to use such identifiers.
