Hi, 

I have an application on FreeBSD 3.2 that uses posix pthreads for multithreading.
Though the application compiled and linked correctly, I found that no threading is taking place. 

The whole application runs as a single thread even though I have created threads using the pthread api
pthread_create(). I also checked with the ps command and found that no thread is getting created. 

Can you please tell me 
1. How to use pthread apis on FreeBSD. Is there any compile or link option that I must use to enable threading
2. Is there any setting in the kernel parameters to enable multithreading
3. In case pthread apis are not supported, what should I use to enable multithreading in my application. 

Please let me know asap.

Thanks a lot.
Geeta.
