Can I get Unix’s pthread.h to compile in Windows?

pthread.h is a header for the Unix/Linux (POSIX) API for threads. A POSIX layer such as Cygwin would probably compile an app with #include <pthreads.h>.

The native Windows threading API is exposed via #include <windows.h> and it works slightly differently to Linux’s threading.

Still, there’s a replacement “glue” library maintained at http://sourceware.org/pthreads-win32/ ; note that it has some slight incompatibilities with MinGW/VS (e.g. see here).
