使用多執行緒
也參考
For a list of multithreading primitives in C++, see Multithreading / Concurrency.
執行緒
執行緒允許程式碼同時執行,可將工作從主執行緒分離出去執行。
Godot 支援執行緒,並提供許多方便操作的功能。
備註
如果你使用其他語言(如 C#、C++),建議直接使用它們提供的執行緒類別會更方便。
警告
在執行緒中使用內建類別之前,請先閱讀 執行緒安全的 API,確認該類別是否可安全用於多執行緒。
建立執行緒
要建立執行緒,請使用以下程式碼:
var thread: Thread
# The thread will start here.
func _ready():
thread = Thread.new()
# You can bind multiple arguments to a function Callable.
thread.start(_thread_function.bind("Wafflecopter"))
# Run here and exit.
# The argument is the bound data passed from start().
func _thread_function(userdata):
# Print the userdata ("Wafflecopter")
print("I'm a thread! Userdata is: ", userdata)
# Thread must be disposed (or "joined"), for portability.
func _exit_tree():
thread.wait_to_finish()
#pragma once
#include <godot_cpp/classes/node.hpp>
#include <godot_cpp/classes/thread.hpp>
namespace godot {
class MultithreadingDemo : public Node {
GDCLASS(MultithreadingDemo, Node);
private:
Ref<Thread> worker;
protected:
static void _bind_methods();
void _notification(int p_what);
public:
MultithreadingDemo();
~MultithreadingDemo();
void demo_threaded_function();
};
} // namespace godot
#include "multithreading_demo.h"
#include <godot_cpp/classes/engine.hpp>
#include <godot_cpp/classes/os.hpp>
#include <godot_cpp/classes/time.hpp>
#include <godot_cpp/core/class_db.hpp>
#include <godot_cpp/variant/utility_functions.hpp>
using namespace godot;
void MultithreadingDemo::_bind_methods() {
ClassDB::bind_method(D_METHOD("threaded_function"), &MultithreadingDemo::demo_threaded_function);
}
void MultithreadingDemo::_notification(int p_what) {
// Prevents this from running in the editor, only during game mode. In Godot 4.3+ use Runtime classes.
if (Engine::get_singleton()->is_editor_hint()) {
return;
}
switch (p_what) {
case NOTIFICATION_READY: {
worker.instantiate();
worker->start(callable_mp(this, &MultithreadingDemo::demo_threaded_function), Thread::PRIORITY_NORMAL);
} break;
case NOTIFICATION_EXIT_TREE: { // Thread must be disposed (or "joined"), for portability.
// Wait until it exits.
if (worker.is_valid()) {
worker->wait_to_finish();
}
worker.unref();
} break;
}
}
MultithreadingDemo::MultithreadingDemo() {
// Initialize any variables here.
}
MultithreadingDemo::~MultithreadingDemo() {
// Add your cleanup here.
}
void MultithreadingDemo::demo_threaded_function() {
UtilityFunctions::print("demo_threaded_function started!");
int i = 0;
uint64_t start = Time::get_singleton()->get_ticks_msec();
while (Time::get_singleton()->get_ticks_msec() - start < 5000) {
OS::get_singleton()->delay_msec(10);
i++;
}
UtilityFunctions::print("demo_threaded_function counted to: ", i, ".");
}
此時你的函式將會在獨立的執行緒中執行,直到結束為止。即使函式已經結束,該執行緒還是需要回收,因此必須呼叫 Thread.wait_to_finish(),它會等待執行緒完成(如果尚未完成),然後正確釋放資源。
警告
建立執行緒是一個較慢的操作,特別是在 Windows 系統上。為了避免不必要的效能損耗,應該在需要大量處理之前先建立好執行緒,而不是臨時才建立。
舉例來說,如果遊戲進行時需要多個執行緒,可以在關卡載入階段先建立執行緒,之後再開始讓它們處理任務。
另外,鎖定與解鎖 Mutex 也會消耗效能。應謹慎進行鎖定,避免過於頻繁或長時間的鎖定。
Mutex(互斥鎖)
從多個執行緒存取物件或資料並不總是被支援(如果這麼做,可能會導致非預期行為或當機)。請閱讀 執行緒安全的 API 文件,瞭解哪些引擎 API 支援多執行緒存取。
當你處理自己的資料或呼叫自己的函式時,原則上應避免不同執行緒直接存取同一份資料。這樣做可能會遇到同步問題,因為資料在 CPU 核心間並不一定會即時更新。從多個執行緒存取同一資料時,請務必使用 Mutex。
當呼叫 Mutex.lock() 時,該執行緒會確保其他執行緒如果試圖 鎖定 同一個 mutex,就會被阻擋(進入暫停狀態)。當使用 Mutex.unlock() 解鎖時,其他執行緒將可以繼續鎖定(但一次只會有一個執行緒取得鎖定)。
以下是一個使用 Mutex 的範例:
var counter := 0
var mutex: Mutex
var thread: Thread
# The thread will start here.
func _ready():
mutex = Mutex.new()
thread = Thread.new()
thread.start(_thread_function)
# Increase value, protect it with Mutex.
mutex.lock()
counter += 1
mutex.unlock()
# Increment the value from the thread, too.
func _thread_function():
mutex.lock()
counter += 1
mutex.unlock()
# Thread must be disposed (or "joined"), for portability.
func _exit_tree():
thread.wait_to_finish()
print("Counter is: ", counter) # Should be 2.
#pragma once
#include <godot_cpp/classes/mutex.hpp>
#include <godot_cpp/classes/node.hpp>
#include <godot_cpp/classes/thread.hpp>
namespace godot {
class MutexDemo : public Node {
GDCLASS(MutexDemo, Node);
private:
int counter = 0;
Ref<Mutex> mutex;
Ref<Thread> thread;
protected:
static void _bind_methods();
void _notification(int p_what);
public:
MutexDemo();
~MutexDemo();
void thread_function();
};

using namespace godot;
void MutexDemo::_bind_methods() {
ClassDB::bind_method(D_METHOD("thread_function"), &MutexDemo::thread_function);
}
void MutexDemo::_notification(int p_what) {
// Prevents this from running in the editor, only during game mode.
if (Engine::get_singleton()->is_editor_hint()) {
return;
}
switch (p_what) {
case NOTIFICATION_READY: {
UtilityFunctions::print("Mutex Demo Counter is starting at: ", counter);
mutex.instantiate();
thread.instantiate();
thread->start(callable_mp(this, &MutexDemo::thread_function), Thread::PRIORITY_NORMAL);
// Increase value, protect it with Mutex.
mutex->lock();
counter += 1;
UtilityFunctions::print("Mutex Demo Counter is ", counter, " after adding with Mutex protection.");
mutex->unlock();
} break;
case NOTIFICATION_EXIT_TREE: { // Thread must be disposed (or "joined"), for portability.
// Wait until it exits.
if (thread.is_valid()) {
thread->wait_to_finish();
}
thread.unref();

} break;
}
}

// Initialize any variables here.
}

// Add your cleanup here.
}
// Increment the value from the thread, too.
void MutexDemo::thread_function() {
mutex->lock();
counter += 1;
mutex->unlock();
}
Semaphore(訊號量)
有時你希望執行緒能夠「按需」工作。換句話說,你會指定什麼時候讓它工作,沒事時自動暫停。這時可以使用 Semaphore。在執行緒中呼叫 Semaphore.wait() 來讓它暫停,直到有資料到來。
主執行緒則會呼叫 Semaphore.post() 來通知資料已經準備好要被處理:
var counter := 0
var mutex: Mutex
var semaphore: Semaphore
var thread: Thread
var exit_thread := false
# The thread will start here.
func _ready():
mutex = Mutex.new()
semaphore = Semaphore.new()
exit_thread = false
thread = Thread.new()
thread.start(_thread_function)
func _thread_function():
while true:
semaphore.wait() # Wait until posted.
mutex.lock()
var should_exit = exit_thread # Protect with Mutex.
mutex.unlock()
if should_exit:
break
mutex.lock()
counter += 1 # Increment counter, protect with Mutex.
mutex.unlock()
func increment_counter():
semaphore.post() # Make the thread process.
func get_counter():
mutex.lock()
# Copy counter, protect with Mutex.
var counter_value = counter
mutex.unlock()
return counter_value
# Thread must be disposed (or "joined"), for portability.
func _exit_tree():
# Set exit condition to true.
mutex.lock()
exit_thread = true # Protect with Mutex.
mutex.unlock()
# Unblock by posting.
semaphore.post()
# Wait until it exits.
thread.wait_to_finish()
# Print the counter.
print("Counter is: ", counter)
