was that a bug in the pthreads library, or luaTask? could that affect
luathreads too? i had some erratic problems with luathreads, and
couldn't isolate them, but a leak on pthreads could explain them
Hi Javier:
It was a LuaTask bug, syncos.c was creating a new thread with default
attributes, but PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED is not the default behavior. :-(
Threads non detached expects somebody to "join" them, and this never
happened causing thread resources to stay unfreed.
I haven't detected any leak caused by the pthreads libraries. (yet...)
;-)
