I'd recommend 'fiber', not getting stuck up on platform specific names. After all, you've got things like the Windows mutexes which are IPC primitives, while the 'mutex' in Boost.Thread is intra-process.
hmm - boost.stratified does not contain IPC primitives - mutext, conditon_variable, ... use only context swapping (from boost.context). the kernel is never involved.
I did not mean to imply that it does. It was intended to demonstrate that there are names in Boost that generalizes a platform-specific name. The entity referred to as "you" here is the collective you, not the particular you "you". -- Lars Viklund | zao@acc.umu.se
