Can't speak for the GTK version, but the native OS/2PM version, compilable under VisualAge C++ uses Control Program API's for thread implementation. -----Original Message----- From: Adrian Gschwend [mailto:ktk at datacomm.ch] Sent: Monday, September 09, 2002 6:19 AM To: os2-unix at eyup.org Subject: Re: wxWindows testers...

One question regarding the GTK-version: Is the thread stuff and other platform dependant stuff OS/2-like implemented? I mean does it use the OS/2 API for the same things in the background? Or is it still posix-like? cu Adrian -- Adrian Gschwend at OS/2 Netlabs ICQ: 22419590 ktk at netlabs.org ------- The OS/2 OpenSource Project: http://www.netlabs.org **= Email 2 ==========================** Date: Mon, 09 Sep 2002 13:18:51 +0200 (CDT) From: "Adrian Gschwend" Subject: Re: wxWindows testers...

No, the ports based on X11 are currently using the unix like Api's for threads, executing other processes, socket communication and whatever. But the native version is there (and used by wxOS2), so it should be just some relatively minor tweaking of configure.in to use it also for those versions. Regards, Stefan -- Micro$oft is not an answer. It is a question. The answer is 'no'.
