Is there anyway to use std::thread with C++11 standard library in windows when compiling with g++ 4.5.2 in MinGW?
I’m going assume no as I’ve seen many things saying you have to compile with the pthreads option but I figure I’d ask anyway.
There is experimental support for
std::threadin for MinGW-w64 toolchains.Specifically, my GCC 4.6 builds provide usable
std::threadthrough MinGW-w64’s winpthreads library.You can find downloads here:
Apart from that, MSVC11 (Visual Studio 2012) has
<thread>,<chrono>, and<atomic>. You can download the Express edition here.
