Make use of mutex to protect sections (known as critical sections) of your code that access/modify the parts of your class's data structure. &nbsp;This will get you thread-safety.<br />

As jkr mentioned, we can't do your homework for you, but we can help with specific questions.

&gt;&gt; - a int member for the current circular start<br />
&gt;&gt;&nbsp;- a int member for the current circular end<br />
<br />
isn't that redundant since the queue is circular?

never mind. i was thinking of circular linked list while yours was array based implementation.

Hi All:<br />
<br />
I have to implement a circular queue of integers of user-specified size using a simple array. Provide routines to initialize(), enqueue() and dequeue() the queue. Please suggest ideas to make it thread safe. <br />
<br />
Regards<br />

Circular queue using arrays and thread safe

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.

C is a general-purpose, imperative computer programming language, supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations. By design, C provides constructs that map efficiently to typical machine instructions, so it has found lasting use in applications that had formerly been coded in assembly language, including operating systems as well as various application software for computers ranging from supercomputers to embedded systems. It is distinct from C++ (which has its roots in C) and C#, and many later languages have borrowed directly or indirectly from C.

Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming languages with over 25 years of development. Perl 5 runs on over 100 platforms from portables to mainframes and is suitable for both rapid prototyping and large-scale development projects.  Perl gained widespread popularity as a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) scripting language, in part due to its regular expression and string parsing abilities. In addition to CGI, Perl is used for graphics programming, system administration, network programming, finance, bioinformatics, and other applications.
