"Qt" or "boost" threads?
Hello all,
I am planning a cross platform application,and going to use Qt library for
GUI.Also going to separate the UI from the actual code.So that in
the future I could change the GUI framework, and also be able to interact
from command line.
Now, this application would have a few threads.So what do you think is
preferrable Qt or boost library?
I understand that choosing Qt would very tight integrate this library into application,
the same about the boost.
Your suggestions?
Thanks.

Personally, I prefer POSIX. It's old, written in C, and very stable and very fast.

I'd suggest Boost Threads, since they're most similar to what C++0x Standard Threads will look like once those are supported. (I don't think any current compilers support them yet.)

Boost allows to create threads in any executable or library, it doesn't natter whether it exposes some UI functions or not. Any non-trivial project contains executables and libraries. In main executable working with Qt, you may use both Qt and Boost threads. In helper non-UI libraries you need Boost threads. Generally, in such case it is better to use Boost threads always.

Hello,
Thank you for the good answers,I will probably use the boost library
