From Paul Forgey : What you are doing sounds frightening. Yeah, I knew ;-) Anyhow, I have arranged my program in a more reliable way yesterday - something like what you kindly proposed, thx.

In fact, I was mainly wondering if I was encoutering a bug on the Mac pthread lib. And I still think there may be one, or at least a lake in the man pages. I enclose an example, as requested by matt. When I select a small amount of time work, that is when the main thread 'joins' the thread1 before the thread 1 calls pthread_detach, the program crashes. Well, not on the first trial, but on the second or the third. In a few words, it seems that : "You cannot call pthread_detach on a thread while a call to pthread_join is pending" This, at least, should be documented, no ? All the best Nicolas _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
