Nahum,
        Basically threaded programming needs no special software. You just
need to have the header files which define the libraries..

For solaris
        thread.h - thread management definitions
        synch.h - synchronization object definitions
        errno.h - system error numbers
         signal.h - signal handling definitions

Also, Feature Test Macro _REENTRANT mus be defined byfore any C source..
you can compile by using

cc -D_REENTRANT ... -lthread

For posix.1c
        pthread.h - thread management and synchronization of object definitions
        errno.h - system error numbers
        signal.h - signal handling definitions
        sched.h - system scheduling control

For more information you might try the following..
        FTP:
                opcom.sun.ca
                        /pub/threads
                        /pub/docs

        WWW:
                http://www.sun.com
                        Use the SEARCH button and keyword "thread"

        Email:
                threads@sun.com (for questions and answers )
                Threads-Hotline@sun.com (mailing list for thread discussions)
                
        CDROM:
                Solaris Demonstrations, CD Times July 1994

        Training:
                SunSoft "Programming with Threads" ( a 3 day course)
                OpCom "Solaris, Threads, and programming" (1 day seminar
                                or 2 day workshop)

Hope this helps

Sun has a bunch of stuff with their suite, but the GNU tools are thread
aware now too. They are what I use. I would highly recommend the SunSoft
book on multi threading apps as a start.
