Hi.
I've downloaded pthreads-dll-1999-08-12 directory (pthreads-dll-1999-09-17
lacks libpthread32.a).
I've no problems with running it with Windows NT && cygwin-b20.
But.. the same program compiled under Windows 95 with cygwin-b19 doesn't
work at all. So... is there a chance to run it with W95??
Thanx in advance:
Szumek.

What would be the procedure to integrate the WinCE support
to the main source tree ?
Would it help if I include the changes to the latest snapshot ?
Who maintains the main source tree ?

I felt I needed to get an updated snapshot out urgently, but will
add the corresponding libpthread32.a as soon as I can.

What happens when you run the executable built under WNT on W95?
Ditto for the W95 built program running on WNT?
The pthreads-win32 should not be causing problems under W95, but the
library has not been tested with cygwin, only MSVC and Mingw32.
There are differences between W95/W98 and WNT, which are handled at
run-time by the library. For example, W95/W98 doesn't support the
Win32 TryEnterCriticalSection function, so under these versions of
Win32 pthreads-win32 mutexes are implemented using Win32 mutexes,
whereas under WNT they are implemented using the faster critical
sections.
This is how I currently test the library:
- build the library and DLL under WNT using MSVC, then build and run
the tests using MSVC on WNT.
- build libpthread32.a under W98 using Mingw32, then build and run
the tests using Mingw32 on W98 using this libpthread32.a and the
WNT/MSVC generated DLL.
Regards.
Ross

Ough, thanx! My problem was different, but this question solved my
problem (in some way)! 8-) When I run on w95 my programm built under WNT
(with cygwin-b20) everything seems to be alright. But.. still, the program
built under w95 doesn't work (it crashes while loading or initializing
pthreads.dll I think - it crashes EVEN if I do not call any function from
pthreads library. It crashes when I link it with libpthreads32.a

So.. as I see.. using pthreads32 with cygwin is on my own responsibility
:)

But I still may use W95 instead of W98 I hope?
