Yep! The big problem with not using OS-level threads is that you only get to have one system call active at a time in your whole program. With OS-level threads, you can have several threads actively doing system calls. That lets you have threads updating your on-disk database or something, at the same time as other threads are doing socket calls. -- Chris Gray cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <ul compact><li><strong>Follow-Ups</strong>: <ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00225" HREF="msg00225.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Multi-threaded programming under Linux</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> Jeff Kesselman <jeffk#tenetwork,com></li></ul> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00223.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Graphical MUDs</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00225.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Multi-threaded programming under Linux</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00241.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Multi-threaded programming under Linux</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00225.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Multi-threaded programming under Linux</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#00224"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#00224"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00227" HREF="msg00227.html">[MUD-Dev] Multi-threaded programming under Linux</A></strong>, Cynbe ru Taren <a href="mailto:cynbe#laurel,actlab.utexas.edu">cynbe#laurel,actlab.utexas.edu</a>, Wed 23 Jul 1997, 22:51 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00229" HREF="msg00229.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Multi-threaded programming under Linux</A></strong>, Orion Henry <a href="mailto:ohenry#sdcc10,ucsd.edu">ohenry#sdcc10,ucsd.edu</a>, Thu 24 Jul 1997, 01:49 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00233" HREF="msg00233.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] OT: Multi-threaded programming under Linux</A></strong>, coder <a href="mailto:coder#ibm,net">coder#ibm,net</a>, Thu 24 Jul 1997, 12:26 GMT </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00241" HREF="msg00241.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Multi-threaded programming under Linux</A></strong>, Michael Hohensee <a href="mailto:michael#mainstream,net">michael#mainstream,net</a>, Fri 25 Jul 1997, 22:45 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00224" HREF="msg00224.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Multi-threaded programming under Linux</A></strong>, Chris Gray <a href="mailto:cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA">cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA</a>, Wed 23 Jul 1997, 13:05 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00225" HREF="msg00225.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Multi-threaded programming under Linux</A></strong>, Jeff Kesselman <a href="mailto:jeffk#tenetwork,com">jeffk#tenetwork,com</a>, Wed 23 Jul 1997, 13:18 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00223" HREF="msg00223.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Graphical MUDs</A></strong>, Chris Gray <a href="mailto:cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA">cg#ami-cg,GraySage.Edmonton.AB.CA</a>, Wed 23 Jul 1997, 13:04 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00222" HREF="msg00222.html">Collision detection</A></strong>, coder <a href="mailto:coder#ibm,net">coder#ibm,net</a>, Wed 23 Jul 1997, 12:21 GMT <UL> <li><Possible follow-up(s)><br> <LI><strong><A NAME="00236" HREF="msg00236.html">Collision detection</A></strong>, coder <a href="mailto:coder#ibm,net">coder#ibm,net</a>, Fri 25 Jul 1997, 09:29 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL></BLOCKQUOTE> </ul> <hr> <center> [ <a href="../">Other Periods</a> | <a href="../../">Other mailing lists</a> | <a href="/search.php3">Search</a> ] </center> <hr> </body> </html>
