HP-UX B.10.20 - Threads support?
Is anybody here familiar enough with this version of HP-UX to understand if (or to what extent) threads/mutexes are supported?

On this particular system, I see man pages for most of the common pthread routines (i.e., pthread_mutex_*, and so on), but pthread.h is not there. I've also seen the 'thr_intro' man page, which again lists a bunch of functions.

I would assume that if the man pages are there, the headers should be there and the functionality should be supported. Is there something I'm missing or something I can check to find out for sure..? Thanks in advance.

10.x is pretty old - no longer supported by base contracts. All bets are off on getting any help from HP.

It did have POSIX thread support, I cannot say what is or is not on your box.
I would consider moving to GNU compilers and some other run-times which are freely available for 10.x

You need to be at HP-UX 10.30 to get full thread safe
APIs.
