As far as POSIX is concerned, that's precisely how it works. `c99 foo.c -l m' means `link in the math functions, wherever they may happen to live'. Likewise `-l rt' for realtime -- and (relevant to this discussion) `-l pthread' for threads. There is no requirement that any of these libraries exist as such. -GAWollman _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
