[Boost.Thread] ids obtained from the same thread not equal
by Karp Dantax 01 Dec '08

01 Dec '08

Using boost::thread::get_id() in an executable and one of its DLLs generate different ids although the calls are made from the same thread. Until Boost 1.34.1, which used GetCurrentThreadId() to compare two boost::thread objects, it worked perfectly. I have not delved into the code, but now that the library is using thread local storage to store the current thread id, it is not working in the context mentioned above. Well, thats it. Maybe i am missing something here? []s

Hi all, the review of Andy Tompkins' UUID library ends today, November 30th. Nevertheless, it's still possible to submit a review for at least a week, as I'm not going to have time for the analysis of the review before Christmas. Thanks to all of you who submitted a review. Regards Hartmut Review Manager

I have been absolutely swamped in the last two days and will not have the time to write up any responses until much later today. Having said that, do you think it's worth my time? It doesn't seem really like we're getting anywhere.
