This is a collection of light weight wrapper classes around the basic Win32 multithreading primitives.

The Simple Threading Library consists of a single thread.h header file and a corresponding thread.cpp implementation file. Included with the library are the following classes: Mutex, Lock, Event, IRunnable, and Thread. A minimal main.cpp test application is included that demonstrates how the classes in the library can be used.

An earlier version of this library originally appeared on flipcode as the Simple Win32 Thread Class.
