New:
-- New non-portable functions for use when statically linking the library
- (see the README file):
- pthread_delay_np
- pthread_win32_process_attach_np
- pthread_win32_process_detach_np
- pthread_win32_thread_attach_np
- pthread_win32_thread_detach_np
- Also, the start of support within the library for statically
- linked applications, but this has not been tested by statically
- linking yet.
-- A fully working MinGW32 g++ compiled version of the library
- is now supplied. To use with g++ compiled applications
- please see the FAQ "How do I generate pthreadGCE.dll and
- libpthreadw32.a for use with Mingw32", which you need to do
- before compiling and linking applications as well.
-- Unhandled exceptions, whether SEH or C++, are no longer
- silently caught and ignored but are passed out of threads for
- the system to deal with. C++ applications can override
- the default termination handler via set_terminate().
- set_terminate() works fine for MinGW32 g++ but not yet with MS VC++
- (see known bugs (2)) even though it's the same code. See
- tests/exception3.c for an example of using set_terminate().
+- New functions (no-ops) for source code compatibility:
+ pthread_getconcurrency
+ (Only returns the value '0' to indicate
+ that the system default concurrency is
+ used)
+ pthread_setconcurrency
+ (Accepts any value >= 0 but does not
+ have any effect; always returns '0' or
+ EINVAL if arg < 0)
+ pthread_attr_getscope
+ pthread_attr_setscope
+ (Currently only return ENOSYS)
Bugs fixed:
-- Pthread_mutex_unlock() now returns EPERM if the unlocking
- thread does not currently hold the thread.
-- Args in the ctime_r macro in pthread.h are fixed.
-- Made semaphore.h independent of config.h when building
- applications. Don't know how this went unnoticed for so long
- - the default defines must have been correct for my test
- environment.
-
-Some new tests have been added.
