The only difference between -lpthread and -pthread that I could see is that the latter also sets -D_REENTRANT. However, I can't find any uses of _REENTRANT anywhere outside of a few utilities that seem to define it manually.
Testing with various manually written pthread programs resulted in identical binaries, let alone identical results. Is there an actual difference between -pthread and -lpthread or is this just a historical artifact? -- Eitan Adler _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
