2.4. POSIX Multi Tasking

POSIX defines muti-tasking in terms of threads. A POSIX implementation of tasking is known as "pthreads", and GCC-ERC32 includes a library that supports the appropriate functions with the library libpthread and the header file pthread.h.

Applications that wish to use the pthreads library must include the header file and cite the library file on the linker command.
