====== C - C++ Threads - Identify different threads ======

Unique ids are given to threads.

----

<code cpp>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <thread>
#include <functional>

void Count()
{
  for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
  {
    std::cout << "counter at: " << i << std::endl;
  }
}

int main()
{
  std::thread t1(Count);

  // Get the ID of the t1 thread.
  std::thread::id t1id = t1.get_id();
  std::cout << t1id << std::endl;

  // Get the ID of the MAIN thread.
  std::thread::id mainid = std::this_thread::get_id();
  std::cout << mainid << std::endl;

  t1.detach();

  return 0;
}
</code>

<WRAP info>
**NOTE:**  The ids can be determined by:

  * Calling **get_id()** member function for a specific thread.
  * Calling **std::this_thread::get_id()** for the currently executing thread.
