[vwnc] Thread Pool

Alberto Bacchelli
Is there an implementation of thread pool in VisualWorks, or should I implement it by myself?

Thank you,
Alberto

In terms of operating system threads, if you are using the DLLCC THAPI calls, then there is a pool maintained automatically. If you're just using Smalltalk processes, then I'm not aware of an implementation, though there might be one. But I don't think it's something that's likely to be necessary. Smalltalk processes are extremely cheap.
