Is there any other site from where we can get the example programs illustrating the usage of boost libraries especially threads. I found the example programs present on boost web site not sufficient to fully understand the concepts. So please tell me from where i can get the further information regarding the usage of boost thread library.

As we established on the recent "C++ and threads" thread not all of pthreads can be implemented on some common thread-aware platforms e.g. Win32. You yourself, Alexander, wrote that 'Only Microsoft could make it "complete", I mean FULL implementation of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001.'

Alexander Terekhov:

I meant QOI (Quality of Implementation) issues

How does QoI affect whether it's a complete implementation or not?

(I'll do it in the reply to this message sometime later, and would greatly appreciate if you could be so kind and share your opinions too.)

Standard C++ threads are imminent. CUJ predicts they will derive from the Boost.Threads library, explored here by the eminent author.
