FW: Does cygwin tool kit Support threads

Fri Jul 27 21:19:00 GMT 2001

Rob, 
	As I mailed earlier I wish to compile some programs which
involve usage of threads and sockets. But in the version I installed
doesn't seem to support these, I had the latest and complete
installation from site.
Which library should I use to compile socket programs - I couldn't find
libsocket library in /usr/lib. 
 What else should I have to install for this? I am using a PIII
machine running Windows Me. 
 My installation procedure - I downloaded setup.exe and downloaded
everything from net (DLL version 1.3.2). What all is covered in this -
only UNIX utilities or all development system related libraries and
tools. I've seen gcc and gdb etc in the software. I am able to compile
and run simple C programs. 
	Am I missing something?
Thanks in advance, 
Anjani Prasad

threads and sockets are supported. You are not providing _any_ detail
about what you are trying to do, so it's quite hard to help you.
