basic_thread_pool.hpp and MinGW #378

Closed dyfer closed 2 months ago

dyfer commented 1 year ago

Hello,

In SuperCollider we use boost and we use this patch for basic_thread_pool.hpp to make it compile on MinGW. https://github.com/supercollider/supercollider/pull/2473 has more discussion on this issue.

This patch seems to be still needed with Boost 1.80.0 (see pending PR) so I'd like to report it here.

Maybe adding this patch would fix https://github.com/boostorg/thread/issues/291, but I'm not sure.

I hope you find this useful. Unfortunately, I don't have much expertise in this myself, just trying to raise awareness.

I think this is not an issue in the newer version of mingw/gcc.
