I'm afraid the documentation is ahead of the source :-( ThreadUnix will be deprecated as described above, however this couldn't be completed in time for the 3.01 release. I probably forgot to "de-update" the documentation. But, yes, the solution to Nicolas' need is to get rid of ThreadUnix entirely. - Xavier Leroy ------------------- Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr
