It sounds like Green Threads are equivalent to fibers. And I am not aware of
any support other than through P/Invoke in .NET. Am I missing the point?

Subject: [DOTNET] Green thread support

I have been advised today that DOTNET has support for what Java guys refer
to as Green Threads, threads that are managed by the application not by the
os. No context switching.... do a search on google if you want the full
explanation.
Anyhow I do not know of any such support and cannot see anything suggesting
this sort of support in dotnet... Does anyone know of any such support. I
do not see this being thread pooling, managed threads to my knowledge as
they are os related in the current version at least.

Gavan
