Hey Guys, The mono VM is running short of usable signals on some targets and we're going to do signal multiplexing. We use the same signal based suspend/resume mechanism as bdwgc and I've been wondering on why sigwait was used instead of a semaphore to implement resume. This decision was made way way in the past but maybe someone still remember the rationale for it? -- Rodrigo _______________________________________________ bdwgc mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opendylan.org/mailman/listinfo/bdwgc
