Hello,

Since Darwin does not support nameless semaphores (sem_init), I'm considering using recursive mutexes instead. Are there any semantical differences between the two? If not, since when have recursive mutexes been available in Darwin? I found a note from someone at http://lists.apple.com/archives/darwin-development/2003/Jan/ msg00134.html stating they were already in 10.2.x. Does anyone know if that is that correct?

Thanks,


Jonas
