Hello Boost Users,<br><br>I am trying to use Boost.Thread in my application. I am compiling on Windows for Windows using Cygwin GCC with the &quot;no-cygwin&quot; option. Boost.Build is far too complicated for my application, so I am using a simple Makefile. I don&#39;t mind whether I use Windows threads or POSIX threads, but I have tried both and I can&#39;t get either to work.
<br><br>Re: Windows threads, I have static linked to &quot;boost_thread-gcc34-mt-1_34_1&quot; (no plan to use unsupported tss), and I defined BOOST_THREAD_USE_LIB and BOOST_HAS_WINTHREADS, however I get a lot of error messages about pthread functions not found.
<br><br>Have you any idea why I get error messages about using pthread functions when BOOST_HAS_WINTHREADS is defined? Is there some other macro(s) which should be defined?<br><br>Re: POSIX threads, I have static linked to &quot;boost_thread-gcc34-mt-1_34_1&quot; and &quot;pthreadGC2&quot; (pthreads-win32), and I defined BOOST_THREAD_USE_LIB and BOOST_HAS_PTHREADS, however I get an error message that nanosleep is not found.
<br><br>I read that nanosleep is part of libc, so I added &quot;c&quot; to my list of static libraries, which finds nanosleep, but then I receieve other errors which looks as though I am linked to multiple C runtimes. What is the correct approach to link nanosleep in this configuration?
<br><br>If you have any suggestion, please let me know! Thanks in advance for your time. Kind regards, Anthony<br><br>P.S. Is there a resource which can tell me which are the prerequisite libraries for boost libraries (e.g
. pthreads or winsock)? So far, I have had to guess appropriate libraries based on internet searches for the function names appearing in &quot;undefined reference&quot; errors, but this seems very clumsy!<br><br>
