I'd like to second that request, needing to use the win32 Sleep just kills the portability. My workaround for yielding is -
#if defined _MSC_VER || WIN32 # include <windows.h> // for Sleep # define MILLI_SECOND_SLEEP(value) (Sleep(value)) #else # include <unistd.h> // for usleep # define MILLI_SECOND_SLEEP(value) (usleep(value * 1000)) #endif
but that's just a hack, it really should be in the library.
Isn't yielding itself a hack? Shouldn't thread coordination be used instead?
