Re: [Tora-develop] TOra on MacOS X

[Henrik J. <hp...@gl...>]

Ok, sounds great. Regarding semaphores, if you check the tothread.h 
stuff there are two versions one using QThread and one using posix 
threads. However, the QThread stuff has a small Visual C++ quirk to 
determine which thread is which, so you can't use the QThread version of 
the toThread. But you can use the QMutex/QWaitCondition version of the 
toSemaphore class. Good luck, let me know how it turns out (And I'll 
definately add it to the CVS.
