• Dependency with ACE/TAO spawn / pthread
• Upgrading C++ Threading Technology (std::thread)
• Managed Threading for other languages

Notes

• Initial motivations to implement ACS Threads in C++
  • Portability, abstraction for complex interfaces, configuration capabilities
• While them may no longer be concerns:
  •  Portability: std::thread, boost::thread
  •  Abstraction for complex interfaces: std::thread, boost::thread
  •  Configuration capabilities: boost::thread
• There was one concern that is still valid and that ACS Threads take care of naturally:
  • Setting up the logger for each created thread
• There was an advantage that the current implementation has:
  • Thread Manager resources deallocation on component / container exit
• One alternative would be to design a registration for lifecycle management 
  • In C++ it should configure the loggers for the thread
  • This could also be desirable for other language implementations
