Hello, I am starting this thread in order to find a solution to an issue encountered with Mono and described in this bug entry (https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=537764).
Short Summary: On Mac OS X, Mono is using POSIX pthread functions to hook to TSD (Thread Specific Data) in order to track the lifecycle of foreign thread (thread not created by the Mono runtime). Under some circumstances, a native-to-managed call can lead to inconsistent state in the Garbage Collector. As recommended by Geoff, I am starting a discussion about new public API to support the notification of thread death/creation in the Mono runtime: - How thread tracking can be done so Mono does not miss thread death ? - What about providing callback functions that override Mono default behavior ? They will be set during the Mono bootstrapping. Any comments or ideas are welcome. Regards, Laurent Etiemble. _______________________________________________ Mono-devel-list mailing list Mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-devel-list
