It's certainly possible, but it requires to to you what a POD is, and when/how to use extern "C" and a few other things that a lot of C++ programmers do not need to worry about. Since GLib, Qt Core, LibBoost, and "C++1x" all provide C++ bindings/abstractions of the threads, I would not write your own. I can't recommend for or against Boost, but one of those 4 should fit your project. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
