Reproduced on Mandrake Linux 10.0 and Fedora Core 2. NOT reproducable on Windows XP (Vis C++ 7.1). Programs generating threads with boost.thread abort after a few hundred threads. I do not mean concurrent threads; this has been reproduced with a program that never has more than one or two threads active at any one time. Attached to this bug report is very short program I wrote to demonstrate this problem. The program generates a thread every second, and each thread only lasts a second. There is never more than 1 or 2 threads active at any time. On Mandrake 10.0 the program aborts/crashes after 256 threads. On Fedora Core 2 it aborts after about 400 threads. The same program built with Vis C++ 7.1 on Win XP never seems to crash; it generated tens of thousands of threads before I manually ended it. Also attached is the Makefile to build the program with g++. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=107586&aid=1075456&group_id=7586 ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
