That's a nice idea but there are a few problems. Kernel threads for example in freeBSD require a "scheduler" in userlevel along with other userlevel stuff which is normaly implemented by one of the pthreads libs. This means we'd have to implement a full blown threading lib. I already added kse_ syscalls in freeBSD, if we want to go this route, these can be used to add proper SMP support to our threads, but I think using pthreads would be more sane. > > Daniël > _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - > fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org > http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
