PThreadPool

PThreadPool is an open source library that it defines, creates and utilize pThreads thread-pools. The Library comes with example code in Test_00.cpp.

STDThreadPool Version (0.006)+ contains also a C++11 std::thread implementation for cases where pThreads are not an option. Use definition VKP_USE_PTHREAD_POOL or VKP_USE_STDTHREAD_POOL to select which one to compile/use.

The following scheduler is used by default, and may not be suitable for some platforms. If there are problems, replace it to your choise:

	sched_param param;
	pthread_attr_setinheritsched(&attr, PTHREAD_EXPLICIT_SCHED);
	param.sched_priority = priority;
	pthread_attr_setschedpolicy(&attr, SCHED_FIFO);
	pthread_attr_setschedparam(&attr, &param);
