I know this is a little off topic, but can anyone point me to some good
reference material for thread handling on Unix? Up till recently, I've done
nearly all my coding under Win32. I've ported over most of my code base to
linux, but I have a gaping hole where threads are concerned.
Mostly I'm curious if there is a thread local storage equivalent in Unix
land.
Just email me, and save the board some spam.
Thanks... and sorry for being off topic.
Andy
