Date: 19 May 1995 19:07:01 GMT Organization: Informatik, Freie Universitaet Berlin Lines: 13 Distribution: world Message-ID: <ARNULF.95May19210701@habari.inf.fu-berlin.de> NNTP-Posting-Host: habari.inf.fu-berlin.de (160.45.110.20) X-Access: 16 17 19 Hi, my goal is to get a thread package under FreeBSD. It should be straightforward to use the POSIX Thread System (pthreads). However, ... I wonder if I could just yank the libpthread subdir from the NetBSD sources and plant them under the /usr/src/lib tree and do a make. Would that be sufficient? Certainly not. I'm also reluctant, since I don't know the specific differences between NetBSD and FreeBSD and how to translate one into the other. Comments? -Arnulf
