Threading primitives
« on: January 18, 2009, 07:22:27 am »
It would be nice to have an "Event" threading primitive in addition to Mutex and Lock. Without something like Event it's hard to efficiently implement a producer/consumer queue and several other nice things.

Well, if you need such advanced threading primitives you can use a more complex library, like boost.thread.

Yeah, okay. I just figured with Thread and Mutex we're already 90% of the way there.
