  Description     : A platform-independent, multi-threading, object-oriented and synchronization library for C++

Zthreads is an advanced platform-independant, object-oriented
threading and synchronization library. Designed and tested under POSIX
& Win32 systems. Not just another thread wrapper.
..
It provides several structures for concurrent programming like
PoolExecutor, MonitoredQueue, Barriers and much more. Futhermore,
structures like Task and Thread are provided for creating threading
applications in C++ easier.
..
This library is used in Bruce Eckel's book "Thinking in
C++" as a good framework for concurrent programming.
