Hi, Dear author:
I’m using your Teal lib under Win32 system(WinXP).
You’d better modify the “teal_hdl_connect.cpp” file like below:
teal_hdl_connect.cpp: line 64
...
#ifdef _MSC_VER
extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) s_tfcell veriusertfs[] =
#else
s_tfcell veriusertfs[] =
#endif
...
So the “eriusertfs” will be expoted automatically. No other works should be done by the coders.
About the pthread lib:
I found the “pthreads for win32″ library is necessary for teal under Win32 OS.
Is it possible to use MS windows’ default “CreateThread” APIs instead?

Hi Shaohao,
Very Cool! I will make the change.
Did you create a project or use the bat files in the test area?
I have had teal on windows in the past. I just don’t have the bandwidth to keep up. Would you be willing to test a new release on Teal on windows? I plan to release once every three months or so.
Yes, I did have a portable mutex class in some previous revs of teal. It’s actually really a better way. Please feel free to modify teal to have such a concept and I will merge the changes into the mainline. The class interface can be simple:
class teal_mutex_internal {
public:
teal_mutext_internal () : acquired_ (false) {}
virtual ~teal_mutex_internal () {};
void acquire () {assert (!acquired); acquire_ (); acquired_ = true}
void release () {assert (acquired); release_ (); acquired_ = false}
protected:
virtual void acquire_ () = 0;
virtual void release_ () = 0;
private:
teal_mutex_internal (const teal_mutex_internal&);
void operator= (const teal_mutex_internal&);
}
Take care,
Mike

About the pthread lib:

Is it possible to use MS windows’ default “CreateThread” APIs instead?
Do you see any advantage in that?
Is the CreateThread API as portable as the pthread library?
I just wonder whether it is as simple to use under any of the other compilers as pthread.
Cheers,
