Subject: Does DECada 1.1 really use POSIX 1003 draft 4 threads...
Date: 10 Feb 93 02:42:40 GMT	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <RSI.93Feb9184240@scf16.scf.loral.com> (raw)

Does anyone know whether DECada 1.1 on Ultrix 4.3 use the POSIX 1003.4
threads.  On Ultrix 4.2, it has its own threads package, but I've
heard that under 4.3, the compiler uses POSIX 1003.4 for its tasking.

Is this is true, then what can this do for me if I have block system
calls within an active thread in an Ada task?  Also, how much more
flexibility can I have using the POSIX threads package versus the DEC
user threads?

Thanks for any insight into this matter!!  (email responses
preferred).



-Rich
