Question

void wait(int timeInMs)
{
    struct timespec timeToWait;
    timeToWait.tv_sec = 5;
    timeToWait.tv_nsec = timeInMs*1000;

    int rt;

    pthread_mutex_lock(&am         


        

Answer 1

The pthread_cond_timedwait function takes an absolute time, not a relative time. It takes the time you want to stop waiting, not how long you want to wait.
