Multi-threaded Applications

DB2 supports C and C++ multi-threaded applications. These applications allow the user to have several simultaneous processes operating, to handle asynchronous events, and to create event-driven applications without resorting to polling schemes. The following sample program is used to demonstrate building a DB2 multi-threaded application on all supported UNIX platforms except HP-UX 10 and Linux:

thdsrver

demonstrates thread creation and management; only available in the C and C++ languages.
