Re: Context switching woes

Did anyone see a horned guy skiing to work today, because the guy at
Microsoft decided to find the pthreads functions I'm looking for, to help me
get a Linux version done...

===
Out of curiosity, I did some checking. With pthreads, there is a mutex
object (there is no special critical section object), which you access
using:

pthread_mutex_init()
pthread_mutex_lock()
pthread_mutex_unlock()
pthread_mutex_destroy()
===

Something is very wrong in Redmond (esp. seeing as this guy is in London)

Hmm, "programming with posix threads" says:
look at

sched_get_priority_max()
sched_get_priority_min()
pthread_attr_getinheritsched()
pthread_attr_setschedparam()
pthread_attr_setschedpolicy()
