using mutex_lock / unlock with VS .NET 2003

using mutex_lock / unlock with VS .NET 2003

[Daniel Starin]

Hi,

The following code compiles and links but fails with the following exception
when I run the .exe.  (I link to pthreadVC1.lib)

Unhandled Exception: System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type
pthread_mutex_t_ from assembly pthreadtest, Version=0.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null.
   at main()

Any suggestions??

Thanks,

Dan
-------------------------------------
#include <pthread.h>

#include "winsock2.h"
#include <stdio.h>

pthread_mutex_t mutex = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER;

int main () {

	pthread_mutex_lock(&mutex);
	printf("hello");
	pthread_mutex_unlock(&mutex);

	return 0;
}

Ahhh solved my own problem... had to turn off the "Use Managed Extensions"
configuration option... anyone care to explain why?

pthreads is written in C and depends on the Win32 core API.
A VS.NET 2003 program with managed extensions (written in managed C++)
depends on the .NET API (Common Language Runtime etc.). These 2 don't
mix allthough you can use native code in a managed program.
