Hi, I have add the fork_after function to Boost.InterThreads. The prototype allows to execute asynchronously N functions and execute asynchronously a function that depends on the completion of N functions. bith::shared_launcher ae; BOOST_AUTO(actT, bith::fork_all(ae, fct1, fct2)); BOOST_AUTO(act,bith::fork_after(ae, fct3, actT)); act.wait(); bith::shared_launcher is an asynchronous executor (AE) that executes asynchronously a function on a new thread. bith::fork_all request the AE to execute asynchronously each function. It returns a fusion tuple of the asynchronous completion token (ACT) associated the the ae. bith::fork_after request the AE to execute a function asynchronously once each one of ACTs in the dependency tuple parameter are ready. It is similar to the async_with_dependencies proposed Peter Dimov. I have used for that Boost.Future (Anthony proposal). Is there any interest in this kind of feautres? Best, Vicente
