Programming with POSIX threads David R. Butenhof
Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional




This book is about "threads" and how to use them. Both are available in Debian: $ sudo aptitude install eztrace vite. Concerning functions provided by the interfaces is reduced in comparison to POSIX threads and offers less functionality. Python's thread and threading libraries use POSIX threads. Thread" is just a name for a basic software "thing" that can do work on a computer. POSIX threading API on Windows. A thread is smaller, faster, and more maneuverable than a traditional process. The easiest way I found to visualize the runtime behavior of POSIX threads is the combination of EzTrace and ViTE. When I was writing the Multicore book, I was struck by the commonality of the Windows [1][2] and POSIX threading APIs. The threading library is the higher level of the two and is therefore the one to use in your typical programming tasks.
