If threads does a system service call (READ on a pipe) from one thread halt the entire processes? 3) do the normal UNIX rules apply about multiple processes running from a single image, ie the file only appears once in memory? 4) does Verdix Ada on SCO use dynamic libraries, ie. is the RTE sharable or linked into each program? 5) does Verdix Ada provide access the full suite of UNIX services, ie pipes, shared memory, etc? thanks -- Lorne Elliot in a Conan the Barabarian suit, or "Beware the fool, for only the fool may speak the truth" Chris Warwick cwarwick@fox.nstn.ns.ca warwick@anchor.hfx.prior.ca
