HOWTO use the lockfreebtree as blackbox:

cleanup: make clean

unit tests: make UNIT_TEST=TRUE ./test

full benchmark: 1) make clean 2) make MAX_THREADS=32 INSERT_PERCENT=20 DELETE_PERCENT=20 SEARCH_PERCENT=60 MIN_ENTRIES=200 MAX_ENTRIES=450

	or simply run "make", any parameter is optional where default values are:
	
		MAX_THREADS=32
		INSERT_PERCENT=20
		DELETE_PERCENT=20
		SEARCH_PERCENT=60
		MIN_ENTRIES=200
		MAX_ENTRIES=450
		
3) ./test num_stage1_actions num_stage2_actions
	
	or simply run "./test" defaults are:
	
		num_stage1_actions=1000
		num_stage2_actions=10000

HOWTO use the lockfreebtree in code: you can see some examples in lockfreeBtree_test.c and main_test.c

use initialize() to get a btree object 
use freeBtree(btree) to destroy the tree

parallel setup with <glib.h>:

your entrance function is start_routine which should be passed to pthread_create
your input will define the action of the tree

full example below:

/*******************************************************/ int main() {

Btree* btree initialize();

//create some insert threads
GThread* insertThreads[MAX_THREADS_NUM];
Input inputs[MAX_THREADS_NUM];

//setup a barrier for parralel execution
Barrier barrier;
barrier.cond = g_cond_new();
barrier.lock = g_mutex_new();
barrier.waiting = 0;
barrier.size = MAX_THREADS_NUM;

//prepare the inputs for the threads
for (int i=0; i<barrier.size; ++i) {
	inputs[i].action = INSERT_OP; 		// action can be {INSERT_OP, INSERT_OP, DELETE_OP}
	inputs[i].threadNum = i;
	inputs[i].pdata = NULL;
	inputs[i].barrier = &barrier; 		// barrier
	inputs[i].timer = g_timer_new();	// allocate timer.
	inputs[i].btree = btree;
	
	inputs[i].key = <YOUR_KEY>;
	inputs[i].data = <YOUR_DATA>;
	inputs[i].result = FALSE;
}
	
//run, all created threads will wait on barrier and then run simultaneously
for (int i=0; i<barrier.size; ++i) {
	insertThreads[i] = g_thread_create(start_routine, \
				(gpointer) &inputs[i], 1, NULL);
}

//join all
for (int i=0; i<barrier.size; ++i) {
	g_thread_join(insertThreads[i]);
}

//cleanup
for (int i=0; i<MAX_THREADS_NUM; ++i) {
	g_timer_destroy(inputs[i].timer);
}

g_mutex_free(barrier.lock);
g_cond_free(barrier.cond);

freeBtree(btree);

return 0;
