Hello, I think I have found a problem in the "pthread_mutex_trylock" call. When I run the following code both the trylock and lock return immediately. If I compile this under RedHat 8 it works as I would expect with the trylock locking the mutex and the lock stopping execution.
I am running the latest version of cygwin under Windows 2000 Pro with the latest service packs. /* ------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------- */ #include <pthread.h> int main (void) { pthread_mutex_t accessMutex = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER; printf ("Init\n"); pthread_mutex_init(&accessMutex, NULL); printf ("Try lock(%d)\n", pthread_mutex_trylock(&accessMutex)); printf ("Lock(%d)\n", pthread_mutex_lock(&accessMutex)); printf ("We should never get here!"); } /* ------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------- */ Chris Knight Development, Teligent Ltd.
