[PATCH] MSVC: Windows-native implementation for subset of Pthreads API

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch implements native to Windows subset of pthreads API used by Git.
It allows to remove Pthreads for Win32 dependency for MSVC, msysgit and
Cygwin.

The patch modifies Makefile only for MSVC (that's the environment I'm
capable of testing on), so it requires further corrections to compile
with MinGW or Cygwin.

Here is another round of that patch with all comments considered. There is
no workaround to make static initialization of mutexes and condition
variables work for Windows, that's why there's explicit initialization
added.

I hope I added to Cc all interested in this patch. Excuse me if I omitted
someone.
