Not that it has much relevance in this newsgroup, but I've used this one: http://sourceware.org/pthreads-win32/ in the past, it works perfectly as far as I can tell, and I don't have any recollection of it needing any posix wrappers of any sort (I imagine you refer to something like cygwin). I've even written my own pthreads wrapper for win32 threads at one point. I cannot claim the same level of completeness or correctness as the implementation I just mentioned, but I definitely didn't need anything from POSIX to do it, just calls to win32 threading functions. In fact most of the pthread functions mapped 1-1 to win32 functions except for condvars which required a more invovled implementation as far as I remember. So I can't really see what's so intimately tied to POSIX as you asserted. -- John Tsiombikas http://nuclear.mutantstargoat.com/
