OK, after quite some trying I have hit a brick wall. I have been unable
to get parallel restore to work with Windows threading. No doubt I am
missing something, but I really don't know what. Unless someone can tell
me what I am doing wrong, I have these possibilities:
* run parallel steps on Windows in separate processes rather than
threads, similar to what we do in the server, or
* disable parallel restore on Windows for now.
Time is unfortunately running very short.
Latest attempt is attached.
We use _beginthread. I don't remember exactely how it broke, but it did. Try
using the below instead of CreateThread.
// NOTE: if you don't need the returned handle, close it or
// leaks will occur. Closing it doesn't kill the thread.
HANDLE h = (HANDLE)_beginthreadex(NULL, 0, thread_start, arg, 0, NULL);
if(h)
CloseHandle(h);
From MSDN:
"A thread in an executable that calls the C run-time library (CRT) should use
the _beginthread and _endthread functions for thread management rather than
CreateThread and ExitThread;"
