pthread

I include pthread.h but the compiler produced an error which was ( fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'pthread.h': No such file or directory) why was this error produced?

Because the preprocessor could not find the file.

pthread is a header you wrote ? i doubt it exists on visual C++ compiler. aren't you compiling a source you found on the internet with a wrong compiler ?

No it's Posix thread library ported to Win32 i think by Cygnus

You need to make sure the compiler can "see" the files from the library. In the IDE usually under the Tools/Options menu item you can find the VC++ Directory settings. You probably need to add the paths to the library in those settings.

It's a header file for a POSIX thread library. Where is your code from? POSIX threads have been implemented on Unix, Linux and Windows. Try to figure out what POSIX library yous code was using. Best, Jun
