This version of Client-Library supports multithreaded programming. Multithreaded applications need to be linked with the multithreaded libraries included with Client-Library.
Not all operating systems provide threads, and Client-Library may not support every thread interface available on a system. For a list of thread interfaces that Client-Library supports, see the Open Client and Open Server Programmers Supplement for Microsoft Windows or Open Client and Open Server Programmers Supplement for UNIX.
On platforms where no thread support is available, the application may be able to use Client-Library’s asynchronous interface to achieve the same effect. See “Asynchronous programming” for more information.
