[Insight-developers] Multithreader and Cygwin

[Julien Jomier]

Hello,

I was tracking down the Semaphore issue on Cygwin and found out that
ITK_MAX_THREADS is set to 1 for Cygwin in itkMultiThreader.h. The reason
given in the code is "cygwin threads are unreliable".  I submitted an
experimental build with ITK_MAX_THREADS=128 on a dual-proc Cygwin machine
and all tests seem to pass.

Can I increase the ITK_MAX_THREADS value to 128 for cygwin?

Thanks,

Julien
