Go Concurrency versus C and pthreads

• kenOfYugen 11y ago
  One can use the same Go style concurrency in C with libmill [1]. Another interesting choice for concurrency would be lthread [2]. What’s special about lthread is that it allows you to make blocking calls and expensive computations, blocking IO inside a coroutine, providing you with the advantages of coroutines and pthreads.

    Thanks for those references; when I was searching for how to do concurrency in plain C, only pthreads came up in the results.

      You are welcome ;) Finding good C resources is rather hard...
