just::thread C++0x Thread Library V1.4.2 Released

Friday, 15 October 2010

I am pleased to announce that version 1.4.2 of just::thread, our C++0x Thread Library has just been released.

The big change with this release is the new support for gcc 4.5 on Ubuntu Linux. If you're running Ubuntu Lucid then you can get the .DEB files for gcc 4.5 from yesterday's blog post. For Ubuntu Maverick, gcc 4.5 is in the repositories.

Other changes:

• Overflow in ratio arithmetic will now cause a compilation failure
• Ratio arithmetic operations derive from the resulting std::ratio instantiation as well as providing the ::type member to better emulate the C++0x working draft
• On Windows, just::thread can now be used in MFC DLLs

As usual, existing customers are entitled to a free upgrade to V1.4.2 from all earlier versions.
