just::thread C++0x Thread Library V1.3 Released

Wednesday, 13 January 2010

I am pleased to announce that version 1.3 of just::thread, our C++0x Thread Library has just been released.

This release is the first to feature support for the new std::async function for starting asynchronous tasks. This provides a higher-level interface for managing threads than is available with std::thread, and allows your code to easily take advantage of the available hardware concurrency without excessive oversubscription.

This is also the first release to support 64-bit Windows.

The linux port is available for 32-bit and 64-bit Ubuntu linux, and takes full advantage of the C++0x support available from g++ 4.3 and g++ 4.4. The Windows port is available for Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 for both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows. Purchase your copy and get started NOW.

As usual, existing customers are entitled to a free upgrade to V1.3 from all earlier versions.
