I don't know the ipc unit. I'll take a look. I suppose IPC is "Inter Process Communication" so supposedly it's not perfectly suited for inter Thread communication (see FUTEX vs. MUTEX) > 3) explain here why the above two are not good enough. > I'd like to (1) do the code according to what the RTL developers say is the recommended way and (2) use the most suited algorithm (thus FUTEX) in the most agreeable way (the one I know is via PThreadLib that AFAIK is done within libc, but maybe the RTL implements something else and the developers recommend this for the long run). thanks -Michael _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - [email protected] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
