And yet another patch from Git for Windows' cache of treasures.
It was challenging to emulate the functions related to
pthread_cond_t
as long as we tried to maintain support for Windows XP, which has nothing close to that feature. Now that we require Windows Vista or later, we can make use of the very nice functions associated with theCONDITION_VARIABLE
data type.Look at how much code this deletes, and how little it introduces. This is a maintainer's dream.
