| Summary | 0000350: winpthreads support | ||||||||
| Description | Currently threaded grades are unsafe if using winpthreads with mingw-w64, which is different from pthreads-win32. We build Boehm GC with -DGC_WIN32_THREADS (i.e. Win32 API) but the Mercury runtime still creates threads using the pthread API without registering them with the GC. A (tiny) change will allow building Boehm GC with winpthreads. We'll try to get that upstream, and then we should upgrade. | ||||||||

Can we make the tiny change to the 14.01 branch ourselves, since we won't be upgrading the GC on that? |
|

We can do that. |

Incidentally, I think Paul was looking at upgrading the GC on the master branch. I'm not sure how far he got with that though. |

Winpthreads support exists upstream and in our branch. |
