Hello, There are "lightweight_mutex.hpp" and "atomic_count.hpp" files in the "detail" directory. I find these tools quite simple and useful in some projects where I don't want to link against the whole Boost.Thread library yet having a degree of portability. But every time I include it the nasty "detail" word in the path always makes me remember that I'm using library's internals that are not the part of public interface. Why not making these tools a part of Boost.Thread library, without any change, of course? A couple of forwarding headers in "boost/thread" and a documentation update would be a nice solution. Thank you. -- Best regards, Andrey mailto:andysem@mail.ru
