為L(zhǎng)inux下線程加個(gè)名字。同樣的Windows 也可以干。 chrome 的源碼中有使用到這個(gè)trick，raise 一個(gè)Exception.
1 #include <sys/prctl.h>
2 void set_thread_name(const char *prefix)
3 {
4 static int index = 0;
5 char thname[16];
6 snprintf(thname, sizeof(thname), "%s%d", prefix, __sync_fetch_and_add(&index, 1));
7 prctl(PR_SET_NAME, (usigned long)thname, 0, 0, 0); //~ refer to `man prctl`
