Hello Vincente,

thanks a lot for your quick response !

>>Sorry, the tutorial is wrong. It should be native_handle()

I have one more: On the same document the Thread attributes chapter starts
with the example
attrs.set_size(4096*10);
Her it has to be set_stack_size as in the example below. Maybe you can find
some time to fix it.

>>Done. Thread attributes were included in 1.50 :(
>>P.S. Please, look at the documentation of the version you are using.

Yes ­ sure ! I am not a bloody boost-beginner but still not very experience
with it. So, I just needed confirmation that my guess is correct.
My project is rather complex and deals with a 3rd-party-component for which
I need to update boost now. Hope it¹s gonna work out ­ I might get back on
this.

Thanks again,
best

Alex
