I've been trying to port a linux program to pthreadw32, and found a mutex issue/difference. Linux allows threads other than the locking thread to unlock a mutex, but pthreads does not. So if you are trying to do that, your unlocks never work. Steve Croall wrote: > I have run a pthreaded application successfully on win2k as well as windows > NT.
