epicsThreadCreate Stacksize Posix

-

The posix implementation of epicsThreadCreate now makes pthread calls to -set the stack size. The sizes for (small,medium,large) stack sizes are -(128K,256K,512K). This is used for at least the following: linux, solaris, -HPUX, Darwin). Doing this allows creation of many more threads os most -systems.

The posix implementation of epicsThreadCreate() now makes pthread calls to +set the stack size. The sizes returned by epicsThreadGetStackSize() for the +inputs epicsThreadStackSmall, epicsThreadStackMedium and epicsThreadStackBig are +128K, 256K and 512K respectively on at least the architectures Linux, Solaris, +HPUX and Darwin (different values are used on vxWorks and RTEMS). This allows +creation of many more threads on most systems.
