Note to mods: this is not a C programming problem. OpenMP was developed because native operating system threads (often referred to as POSIX threads or Pthreads) programing can be cumbersome. The pthread is build on notion like Mutex ,Conditions Variable. The charter of the group is to collect the best known methods of programming practices using today's technology. For UNIX systems, this interface has been specified by the IEEE POSIX 1003.1c standard (1995). Today was the final day of a 3-day workshop on POSIX threads (pthreads) and Network programming, organized at the Ettimadai (Coimbatore) campus of Amrita. To support POSIX Threads Programming: https://computing.llnl.gov/tutorials/pthreads/. For embedded developers, that means C/C++ and libraries, mainly POSIX threads. A C++ Thread Pool Implementation Using POSIX Threads. In order to take full advantage of the capabilities provided by threads, a standardized programming interface was required. Threads are very useful but potentially very tricky constructs in computer programming. For Linux C programmers, probably the most frequently used lock is mutex from NPTL, the Native POSIX Thread Library. It was primarily created to support Java development but was later extended to support other programming languages. They are also generally hard to get right. I learned thread programming with POSIX thread or pthread while I was C/C++ programmer long time ago. It probably belongs in a unix programming forum (although posix threads are more widely available than unix, that is where they are used most often). The past three days were extremely useful for all of us. Java's synchronize, wait and notify always baffled me.
