NEW: snapshot-2002-03-02 available

[Ross Johnson]

There are bugs fixes, new routines, new tests, and a lot
of reorganisation. Please see the ANNOUNCE, NEWS, and BUGS
files in the package or at:

http://sources.redhat.com/pthreads-win32/announcement.html

There is also an updated Copyright notice on the source
code, but NO CHANGE to the licensing, which is the GNU LGPL.

The Copyright notice replaces the original inadequate notice
and reflects the heritage of the project.

The Copyright notice is slightly different to the one that I
proposed on this list a few months back. This change was at
my own instigation. I don't expect anyone to have any
objection to it since there was no objection to the previous
one, but please let me know if you do.

I've also made acknowledgements more prominent in the
CONTRIBUTORS file and ChangeLog to go with the change in the
copyright notice. Let me know if I've missed you out, or
missed noting any significant contributions.

Enjoy!
Ross

The included MSVC++ project files do not work / compile this snapshot.
Attached are some updated files that build the project without any problems.

Regards,
    Vince.

Thanks. Although it isn't necessary to specify pthread.def anymore,
which has therefore been removed from the package.

You can also replace all source files with just pthread.c. This
#includes all other source files. The reason for this is to
maximise the potential for inlining under /O2. (As I understand it,
inlining can only occur within the same "translation unit".)

Unfortunately it then seems there is no way to list all of the
individual source files (so they can be edited) except by
running a build and then looking in the "External references"
folder. Is there a way to gerate the external references list
without running a build?

There is a good way to accomplish what (I think) you want:

1. Add all the source files to the project, including the ones that are
#included by pthread.c
2. In the workspace view, select all the files that are #included by
pthread.c (i.e. the ones you don't want MSVC to compile directly)
3. Right click on one of those files, select "Settings.."
4. Under the "General" tab, select "Exclude file from build" (probably also
want to have "All configurations" selected when you do this)
