Well, I guess that in such case, there is little point in using pthreads API, and you'd be better served with ThreadingEA.cpp? All port authors who spoke prefer (to a different degree) their own WebKit-specific threading implementations to using pthreads. Hard to argue with that, even though I still dislike the idea for the reasons stated earlier. I think I'd like to eventually move Apple's Windows port from ThreadingWin to ThreadingPthreads anyway, but that's a separate topic for discussion. - WBR, Alexey Proskuryakov _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
