Hi,
Related to this issue, I've run into lots of problems in the past using pTH
because lots of the standard include files include the pthread.h...this
results in tons of warnings and errors due to redefinitions of macros and
conflicting definitions.
Is there a standard way to handle this? In the past I've just hacked the
heck out of the include files to get stuff to work. But it's not a great
solution...because the "quick" is soon forgotten but the "dirty" remains
forever. :)
Sincerely
Brent Phillips
