Introduction to NPth
The NPth package contains a very
portable POSIX/ANSI-C based library for Unix platforms which
provides non-preemptive priority-based scheduling for multiple
threads of execution (multithreading) inside event-driven
applications. All threads run in the same address space of the
server application, but each thread has its own individual
program-counter, run-time stack, signal mask and errno variable.
This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-11.0
platform.
