[Lazarus] Thread support in package in MacOS 10.5

[Roland Turcan]

Hello Reenen,

Thanks for your fast response. Of course I know, that I need to add
"cthreads" into program which I want to build with thread support, but
maybe you didn't realize, that I wrote about package of components to
be built into Lazarus.

You know, that MyPackage.pas file is generated automatically from LPK
file and it contains this:

RL> { This file was automatically created by Lazarus. Do not edit!
RL> This source is only used to compile and install the package.
RL>  }

>From here:

Units needed for a multithreaded application

You don´t need any special unit for this to work with Windows. However with Linux, Mac OS X and FreeBSD, you need the cthreads unit and it must be the first used unit of the project (the program unit, .lpr)!

So, your Lazarus application code should look like: 

program MyMultiThreadedProgram;
{$mode objfpc}{$H+}
uses
{$ifdef unix}
  cthreads,
{$endif}
  Interfaces, // this includes the LCL widgetset
  Forms
  { add your units here },


I am assuming that the $ifdef unix doesn't return true for Mac OS X, but I am sure there is one that checks if it's a Mac...

Regards,
-Reenen
