+POSIX Threads for embedded systems (PTE)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+PTE is an open source implementation of the POSIX API for multithreaded
|
|
|
+applications (pthreads). It is intended to be used to provide a pthreads
|
|
|
+API for embedded operating systems that do not natively provide a pthreads
|
|
|
+API. PTE is designed to be easily portable to such operating systems and only
|
|
|
+relies on basic primitives (e.g. semaphores) that are widely supported on most
|
|
|
+embedded operating systems.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Currently, PTE has been ported to Texas Instrument's DSP/BIOS and Sony's PSP OS.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+PTE is based heavily on Pthreads Win32, and implementation of pthreads
|
|
|
+for Windows.
