Doc,

First, threads are not "native" on V3R6/V3R7 but are sort of 
kludged in.

Using them requires the CPA Toolkit.  On V3R7, this is "OS/400 - 
Common Programming APIs Toolkit" and is availible no-charge from 
IBM.  And any machine that wants to run whatever you write will 
also have to have this.

If you need to target below V4R2 and this is something you sell, 
I would recommend avoiding the CPA toolkit.  Just one more 
Support Headache.

If you are developing something for your internal use, then that 
is different and you might want to use the tool kit.

Regards,

Hey all...

I've done a little research in the V3R6/V3R7 manuals on threads 
and thread
management.  It all _seems_ fairly straightforward, but as we 
all know...

Anyway, I'm curious-- has anyone used these suckers?  How good 
are they
compared to Windows or Unix implementations?  Are they worth the 
trouble?

Thanks

-Doc
