Gribble" at Jan 18, 96 10:12:36 am X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24] Content-Type: text Content-Length: 702 I'm going to pick up my "Threads Primer" today. Is there any other book that deals with C++ and threads? My work is in image processing and microscopy, doing things like auto-focus, this involves synchronizing a thread that controls focus actuator and a thread that controls frame grabber and focus measure calculation. Another example of what I need is for image classes where some image operations are done in parallel on multiple (2 right now) CPUs. I have done these on UnixWare so far and now plan to do some similar things on FreeBSD (no SMP yet) and pthreads. Are there any special installation or other notes for using pthreads on FreeBSD? To what extent is lib++/g++ thread-safe? Jonas
