Hi,
 
To ensure that we have proper version/platform/compiler information,
please make sure you fill out the appropriate problem report form
(PRF), which is in

$ACE_ROOT/PROBLEM-REPORT-FORM
$TAO_ROOT/PROBLEM-REPORT-FORM

or in

$ACE_ROOT/BUG-REPORT-FORM
$TAO_ROOT/BUG-REPORT-FORM

in older versions of ACE+TAO.  Make sure to include this information
when asking any questions about ACE+TAO since otherwise we have to
"guess" what version/platform/compiler/options you've using, which is
very error-prone and slows down our responsiveness.  If you don't use
the PRF, therefore, it is less likely that someone from the core
ACE+TAO developer team will be able to answer your question.
Naturally, we encourage and appreciate other members of the ACE+TAO
user community who can respond to questions that they have the answers
to.
  
We need to know more about VxWorks version, which mode, etc, etc. Note that
we as Remedy IT do actively port to VxWorks and maintain it, we only deliver
VxWorks support as part of our commercial services as described on
www.theaceorb.nl

	Hello!

	How I can define task ( thread ) name during creation in VxWorks?

	I succeded to give task name using ACE_thread_t argument in spawn
function.

	But my code runs on VxWorks and Windows XP and I didn't find cross
platform way ( without using #ifdef VXWORKS )

	To solve this problem.

	My solution :

	std::string thread_name("My Thread") ;

	char*  p_thread_name = (char*)thread_name.c_str() ;

	ACE_Thread_Manager::instance()->spawn ( 

	                ACE_THR_FUNC( server) ,

	                       reinterpret_cast<void*>(thread_arg) ,

	                       THR_NEW_LWP | THR_DEAMON 

	#ifdef VXWORKS

	                | VX_FP_TASK , &p_thread_name

	#endif

	                ) ;


	In this way thread_name and p_thread_name is unused variables in
Windows XP.

	May be somebody can advise portable solution?

	Thanks.
