I'm new to linux , so are there any difference between windows platform and linux in terms of coding (mainly in multithread)? Because I heard that a linux thread is different from windows thread. Could you recommend me any reading material that clear some cobweb in my brain ?
Thanks in advance for helping me.
As far as Java is concerned, there is no difference in the software API.
Now, when you get to the C/C++ level, things change rather significantly due to the fact that Linux is Unix-like/Posix and Windows is, well, it is Win32. However, Java "hides" all of that and provides a very nice, language defined threading model with all of the tools needed to build complex multi-threaded applications that run on any JVM of the same release level.
