Subject: question about tasks, multithreading and multi-cpu machines

Message-ID: <dv6qsd$lg0$00$1@news.t-online.com> (raw)
In Ada it is possible to declare multiple parallel running "tasks". But for
my opinion the keyword "task" is somewhat misleding because in fact, those
"tasks" are really threads.
If I run such a program on a multi-cpu machine, the process itself will use
only one cpu, even though I create several "tasks".
I tested this with gnat v3.15p under HPUX 11 on a multi-cpu server.
How can I write my code to utilize all cpu's on such a machine? Is there a
different way in Ada to perform multi-tasking instead of multi-threading?
Thank you for your help!
Best regards, Norbert
