Hi;
I am in the process of converting an existing thread function originally called using BeginThread to use boost.thread.
I have a coupple of questions:
1. How would I go about returning to the existing thread, I use windows event handles and when one is signaled the thread ends, can I still use a while loop to do this, such as:

Do {
Code
While(returnFromThread !=true);
2. Does boost::thread allow me the create mutex's and does it inherit windows mutex handles.
3. Can I tell a thread to run as soon as it starts or do I have to use the call boost.join.
Any help apreciated.
Cheers
San.
