The Ada language provides for synchronization between tasks, and part of the Ada Task Control Block is used for mutex/condition variable storage just for this purpose. But if there is no need for synchronization, then I don't see why your thread/process wouldn't be able to run under the limits of the OS. Dan Eischen deischen@iworks.InterWorks.org
