We need to run on all the main platforms (Linux, Windows and Mac) and we'd like to use the native code compiler and threads. My first question: does O'Caml support threads in compiled code in all the above platforms? (It's ok if Mac support is pending but Windows support is essential.) My second question: how do I get threads to work? I'm currently developing on Linux and there is no threads.cmxa in my /usr/lib/ocaml (3.04 via Debian). The O'Caml book suggests I need to download and compile my own ocamlopt including pthreads support. Is this correct? What do I do for Windows? Thanks, Noel PS: Markus, I know you'll be reading this. I still prefer Scheme!!!! ;-) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
