# Threadpool in C
A very basic thread pool implementation in C.
## Instructions
```bash
./build.sh
./bin/tpool-example
```
Send SIGUSR1 signal to add a task to the pool.
**Note:** This is a very basic implementation, more features will be added in the near future.
## Usage
Include the `src/tpool.h` file into your project, and add `src/tpool.c` during compilation.
1. Creating a thread pool
```c
int tpool_init(tpool *pool, size_t thread_count);
```
2. Adding a task to the pool
```c
ssize_t tpool_add_task(tpool *pool, void* (*start_routine)(void*), void* args);
```
**returns:** -1 on error, otherwise gives the assigned `task id`
3. Destroying thread pool
```c
int tpool_destroy(tpool *pool);
```
