Are they using: o kernel threads only o user threads only o multiple user threads bound to multiple kernel threads o pthreads o LWP (using async I/O to implement user space threads, in a SunOS 4.1.x backward copmatability mode) o sigsched type threads The answer about status depends on your answer about what you want status on... The answers are: o unsupported o limited support o unsupported o supported, but not rev'ed for 2.x yet o limited support o supported For those items with limited support, the question to answer is "what interfaces does Java consume?".
