For example: accept_thread = objc_thread_detach(@selector(processLoop:), self, Nil); objc_thread_yield(); ... thr-single.c simply returns an error for each thread call. > pthread_yield(); > exit(0); > } > > (jmallett@luna:~/gnu/lib/libobjc)128% cvs diff > cvs server: Diffing . > Index: Makefile > =================================================================== > RCS file: /home/ncvs/src/gnu/lib/libobjc/Makefile,v > retrieving revision 1.14 > diff -r1.14 Makefile > 14c14 > < thr.c thr-single.c \ > --- > > thr.c thr-posix.c \ Yes, this is what I did.
