If you are doing this on Linux you can use the HARD system call method, look at the config options, which when you link will use the pthread emulation api in pth threads.
-----Original Message----- From: Thor Tall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 21, 2003 5:02 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: can pthread and pth coexist We are using COTS library which is using pthread and a number of other libraries which we can not recompile. These libraries are calling a number of system calls which there are pth replacements for. Are there any problems using both pthread and pth in the same program under linux redhat 7.3? I assume that the libraries which are performing non-pth system calls will influence the performance of the process i.e. the other threads in the process? can this be avoided? Can the fact that these libraries perform non-pth system calls cause problems for pth? and if so can these be overcome? Thanks __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
