just::thread C++0x Thread Library V1.0 Released
Thursday, 08 January 2009
I am pleased to announce that version 1.0 of just::thread, our C++0x Thread Library is now available.
The just::thread
library is a complete implementation
of the new C++0x thread library as per the current
C++0x working paper. Features include:
std::thread
for launching threads.- Mutexes and condition variables.
std::promise
,std::packaged_task
,std::unique_future
andstd::shared_future
for transferring data between threads.- Support for the new
std::chrono
time interface for sleeping and timeouts on locks and waits. - Atomic operations with
std::atomic
. - Support for
std::exception_ptr
for transferring exceptions between threads. - Special deadlock-detection mode for tracking down the call-stack leading to deadlocks, the bane of multithreaded programming.
The library works with Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 or Microsoft
Visual C++ 2008 Express for 32-bit Windows. Don't wait for a full
C++0x compiler: Buy your copy of
just::thread
now and start using the C++0x thread
library in minutes.

Looks like great thing. When Win64 support will be available? What about Linux suppport? Is library provided in source form or as set of .LIBs (if .LIBs - are all possible compiler modes covered(static/mt,debug static/mt,etc)? Are upgrades free?
There isn't currently a predicted date for win64 support. Linux support should be available by the end of this month. The library comes as a set of LIB files covering multiple compiler modes. Upgrades are free.
