Summary : MinGW pthread library for the win64 target
URL : http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/
License : MIT and BSD
Description : The POSIX 1003.1-2001 standard defines an application programming
: interface (API) for writing multithreaded applications. This interface
: is known more commonly as pthreads. A good number of modern operating
: systems include a threading library of some kind: Solaris (UI)
: threads, Win32 threads, DCE threads, DECthreads, or any of the draft
: revisions of the pthreads standard. The trend is that most of these
: systems are slowly adopting the pthreads standard API, with
: application developers following suit to reduce porting woes.
:
: Win32 does not, and is unlikely to ever, support pthreads
: natively. This project seeks to provide a freely available and
: high-quality solution to this problem.
