Hello, I was looking into a way to detect if an instance of my application is running. Is there a cross-platform solution on rtl or fcl?
It seams that semaphores would be a good solution. I took a look at pthreads and PSemaphore but that is only an alias for unix specific semaphores. If there is no current solution for this problem, may I implement pthreads for Windows? Or maybe a new unit? I remember using Mutex Windows APIs to do what I need in the past. There are probably Semaphore functions that could be used to provide a uniform interface across the supported platforms. thanks, -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
