GeneralMulti-threaded MFC Webcrawler (VC++) Pin
JonCage30-Mar-04 2:24

Hi there, I'm in the process of writing a multi-threaded webcrawler using VC++ 6 and MFC. I've got the basics down, but I can't help feeling like I'm going about it the wrong way.

I've got a Doc/View set up and when the user chooses some options (base URL / how many threads to launch), the document launches the first thread. To do that, it sends a message (using postthreadmessage) to the worker. The worker then goes and downloads the first page, parses it for links and sends a message back to the document via the view as I wasn't able to send them directly to the document...

As a side note, that process feels a little clunky. It seems logical that you'd probably not want to send messages direct to the document, but I couldn't see where else to do it; afterall, the document's storing all the links the workers download.

...anyway, once the document knows there's an idle worker, it gets all the links from the worker (calls a member function on it to retrieve the data - should be safe as the worker is idling now?) and adds them onto the (end of) master list. Since the document knows there's now a free worker, it pulls off the next link on the master link and launches the worker off again.

Does this sound like a reasonable way of doing things? I'm not sure quite why, but it feels a little in-elegant, and I can't help feeling there's probably a better way of doing it?

Any suggestions / comments would be most welcome!

Cheers, Jon

Success is 99% failure
