Advanced Threading Library

This C library implements the C11 threading API using standard POSIX threads (pthread.h). In addition to the standard C11 functions it also implements read/write locks, barriers and spinlocks in a style matching the C11 threading API.

It was written to provide a unified API for threaded applications on systems that do not support C11 compilers.

Multiple platforms are supported including, but not limited to: Linux, BSD and MacOS.
