I just did a 'man gcc' on our PostgreSQL FreeBSD server and read: -pthread Link a user-threaded process against libc_r instead of libc. Ob- jects linked into user-threaded processes should be compiled with -D_THREAD_SAFE. so it seems it is a link flag, and they have a compile flag no one told me about. I already have it configured as a compile flag. Let me fix that. I am working on the thread test program so I will commit it all at once. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html
