Having no experience with threading in the past, which threading technique in C++ will be the easiest for a beginner? boost::thread or pthreads?
Go for boost::thread. It’s closely related to the work on the upcoming C++ standard threads, and the interface is quite easy to use and idiomatic to C++ (RAII instead of manual resource management).
