I couldn't find where the win32 build runs into pthread, all uses seem to be guarded by preprocessor conditionals and the SGThread isn't included in the visual studio projects. (I guess it could be removed from simgear entirely - I don't see any users as we *have* switched to OpenThreads) Could you be a little more specific about the error? > Boost – this was a big surprise.

It is used in quite a lot of places by now, I wonder what version of SG/FG you are using. Anyway, I have a "deboost" branch on gitorious that doesn't require boost. -- Cheers, Csaba/Jester ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
