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 and std::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.
