No. FPC is in general totally independant of any Unix lib on Windows. The parts that _can_ be used are typically mingw implementations of libs with little other dependancies. > It would probably ease use. Actually it wouldn't be pretty pointless. FPC threading is modelled after Delphi, which is closer to Windows than to pthreads. > The main inconvenience to this library is that > it wants to use a dll and the nice thing about FPC is "no dependencies". > So maybe an interface to the C library would have to be written What would be the need for this? Deep integration with cygwin? _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
