Thanks for the response.
The library uses a centralised function to start all its threads
using pthread_create. If I can make this central function inform FPC
about all the threads created, would this work?
There is no interface in the RTL to inform it about newly created
external threads, so it would be quite hard.
Assuming it would work: what information would FPC require? When
would this info be required, before or after thread creation? What
needs to be done on the FPC side with this info?
Look at rtl/unix/cthreads.pp, in the functions CBeginThread/ThreadMain
and CEndThread (they also call generic code from rtl/inc/thread.inc,
such as InitThread and DoneThread).
