Hi,

You can consider me to be a newbie to pthreads-win32. I downloaded and
am using pthreads-2.8.0 static library and dll binaries with MinGW. I
find the default stack size to be zero. Consider the code snippet
below:

    pthread_attr_t attr;
    pthread_attr_init(&attr);

    size_t defStackSize;
    pthread_attr_getstacksize(&attr, &defStackSize);

    cout << "Default stack size = " << defStackSize << endl;

The above code prints 0! Does this mean that I cannot use the default
attributes in most but the simplest of my application??

Thanks and regards,
Siva Chandra
