Hi Igor,<br><br>I meant that somehow the Windows events were connected to user defined functions using boost::bind or something like that. I have been trying very hard to find that post but without any success so far. Will be thankful if anyone could provide a link to that post or an alternative/better solution.<br> <br>Would you elaborate as to what you mean by portable idiom of "condition_variable"? Do you mean the condition variables that we normally use in threads? I don't understand this part.<br><br>Best regards, Asif<br> <br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Mar 23, 2011 at 12:02 AM, Igor R <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:boost.lists@gmail.com">boost.lists@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"> <div class="im">> I recall sometime back someone posted this question on this list and the<br> > response/answer was very good.
