Full Discussion: Does UNIX support multi-Threading ?
Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers Does UNIX support multi-Threading ? Post 303037084 by bakunin on Tuesday 23rd of July 2019 04:17:49 AM

Neither UNIX nor Linux is written in C# - not even in small portions. Mostly, because C# is basically a Windows invention and interlinked with the ".net" environment. The UNIX and the Linux kernel is written in (small parts in) assembler and (most of the kernel) in C.

Multithreading is something completely different from multitasking (the handling of several concurrent processes) and it is not a question of the OS but a question of the compiler and the library supporting it. So you will have to find out if the platform you are going to use supports it or not.

I hope this helps.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       fileutil::multi - Multi-file operation, scatter/gather, standard object

SYNOPSIS

       package require Tcl  8.4

       package require fileutil::multi	?0.1?

       package require fileutil::multi::op  ?0.1?

       package require wip  ?1.0?

       ::fileutil::multi ?word...?

_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       This  package provides a single command to perform actions on multiple files selected by glob patterns. It is a thin layer over the package
       fileutil::multi::op which provides objects for the same. This package simply creates a single such object and directs all file commands	to
       it.

       At the core is a domain specific language allowing the easy specification of multi-file copy and/or move and/or deletion operations. Alter-
       nate names would be scatter/gather processor, or maybe even assembler.  For the detailed specification  of  this  language,  and  examples,
       please see the documention for the package fileutil::multi::op.

PUBLIC API

       The main command of the package is:

       ::fileutil::multi ?word...?
	      This command interprets the specified words as file commands to execute. See the section FILE API of the documentation for the pack-
	      age fileutil::multi::op for the set of acceptable commands, their syntax, and semantics.

	      The result of the command is the result generated by the last file command it executed.

BUGS, IDEAS, FEEDBACK
       This document, and the package it describes, will undoubtedly contain bugs and other problems.  Please report such in the category fileutil
       of the Tcllib SF Trackers [http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=12883].  Please also report any ideas for enhancements you may have for
       either package and/or documentation.
