C++ And Threads

by Randy Charles Morin

If you’ve ever done multithreaded programming then most likely it was in C++. I haven’t

heard of many developers using the CreateThread Win32 API function from Visual Basic

or even Delphi. The reason is that the advantages of C++ and multiple threads are usually

the same.

You want more responsiveness from some application. How do you do it? Well you

could have multiple threads in order to limit blocking of one application request by

another. You could also use a more low level language.
