MS Windows and Threads [was: readInBackgroundAndNotify && Windows]

[Marc Brünink]

Hi 

after some hours of research my overall impression is, that gnustep threads support is heavily broken on Windows 2000. Could someone *please* prove me wrong? :-)

I used the windows installer to install gnustep. Perhaps I should compile it for myself, so gnustep is able to use some sort of windows 2000 specific things !??
I think I'll give it a try. 

regards
Marc
