win32 pthreads is a mess in this respect. config.h is a file generated by their configure.ac,which has all the autoconf HAVE_XXX macros set. Even worse, this file is included in pthread.h, thus totally polluting your application's namespace. IMHO, this makes win32 pthreads unusable Daniel -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, London -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://ovirt.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :| _______________________________________________ fedora-mingw mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/fedora-mingw
