windows - Using Win32 API functionality along with/from pthreads -


i have own threading library built using tinythread++. works quite well, , great learning experience me. have own datastructures passing around messages, , interface makes sense me, because author.

whenever thread created in system, runs in loop, , checks messages via message passing protocol of own devising.

now want start using windows api functionality, , windows has own set of conventions , message queues, etc. i'm pretty sure tinythread++ uses pthreads. since i'm using mingw, i'm wondering if pthreads being implemented on windows threads. if case, may able treat pthreads-threads windows-threads. if not, suspect might run strange behavior.

edit: looking @ thread type given tinythread++ looks uses windows handle keep track of threads , uses _beginthreadex spawn them.

my question is, windows happy if go around calling setwindowshookex point in pthreads code? realize need have windows message polling loop in same thread. intend this: 

try {      hhook mousehook = setwindowshookex(wh_mouse_ll, mousehookproc,         null, 0);     if (mousehook == null) printf("mousehook error %u\n",getlasterror());      while(true) {         msg msg;         if (getmessage(&msg,0,0,0)) {             translatemessage(&msg);             dispatchmessage(&msg);         }     }     unhookwindowshookex(mousehook);      printf("procedure completed without exceptional events.\n");  } catch (...) {     printf("exception!\n"); }

that should fine.

you may run trouble if try pass pthread thread ids windows threading functions want thread handle, here need loop stay in same thread setwindowshookex.
