Answer / lp

C++ allows to to build your own multi-threading libraries by
making use of system calls, but there is no standardized
support for multi-threading. Reasons? Following are the few
of them:

1. You decide the performance of your system by designing
simplified wrappers over the system call to support
multithreading. Get-What-You-Want and Pay-For-What-You-Want,
Dont-pay-for-what-you-dont-want!!
2. Standardizing support may hide some powerful system
level functionality unique to a a particular
multi-threaded-processor!

Answer / kanthi

Multithreading in c++???
As far as i know, c++ does not provide any language level
support for multithreading. If it is to be implemented
using c++, then it cannot be done without the support of
the underlying operating system which makes things a little
more complicated, unlike java, where a language level
support is provided for the same.
And, difference between multithreading and single-
threading: Multithreading is one form of multitasking where
a single big task is divided into independent, simultaneous
operations which can run together so that subtasks
independent of eachother can be implemented at once to
improve efficiency.
