The Cygwin port of OCaml is just the OCaml Unix sources compiled and linked against the Cygwin "Unix compatibility" libraries. The latter do not (yet?) provide a Unix-compatible thread library, hence no threads in OCaml-Cygwin. The Mingw port of OCaml is the OCaml Win32 sources compiled by Cygwin/Mingw and linked against the native Win32 libraries, which include Win32 threads. Thus, OCaml-Mingw supports threads via Win32. - Xavier Leroy ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners
