[threadpool] from your experience, is it safe to use threadpool with recent boost release?
Dear community, I found the threadpool library very useful (http://threadpool.sourceforge.net/). Apparently, it was designed for boost 1.37.0 and seemed to target inclusion in boost but probably did never go to a review because its author had not enough time to meet all requirements for boost inclusion, in particular, documentation. However, it is ready to be used with boost as is can just be untared in the boost include directory. I have tried to use it with boost 1.51.0 and it seems to work nicely. Before using it for long term projects, I was wondering if some of you use this library with success together with a rather recent boost release? Do you experience any issue or everything is just fine. Any chance that the latest changes in the thread library (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/237484) would impact threadpool? Regards, Frédéric

Nobody else using threadpool? Is there an alternative within boost? Frédéric

Personally I prefer to use TBB because I'm not sure about threadpool like you.
Is there an alternative within boost?
Nope. Actually it is often suggested to use boost::asio like there: http://progsch.net/wordpress/?p=71 Not sure of the limitations thought. Joel Lamotte
