Hello all PH> Hi all, I was amazed about the huge interest in my threadpool lib in PH> the last week. :-) Currently, it looks like there's a strong demand PH> for having a thread pool included in boost. Anthony would like to add PH> futures and a pool to boost::thread. I think this is a very good idea PH> for two reasons. First, any boost thread pool should be based on PH> boost::thread. This means platform independence for free. It does not PH> make much sense to separate the libs because the threadpool part is PH> small and requires the boost::thread binaries anyway. Second, we PH> don't need a boost project setup for my lib. I guess it's much easier PH> to integrate with boost::threads than to prepare a stand-alone PH> library. PH> Please let me know your opinions. I think, that at first stage we'll need to has 2 options - one stand-alone library, ready to quick rollout together with current boost release (1.35 for example), and in parallel port it to include into boost distribution for a next release (1.36?) after review -- With best wishes, Alex Ott, MBA http://alexott.blogspot.com/ http://content-filtering.blogspot.com/ http://alexott-ru.blogspot.com/ http://content-filtering-ru.blogspot.com/ http://xtalk.msk.su/~ott/
