I would like to know whether your book explain about mapping between C++ threads and Operating System threads priorities? For example in Java we have 10 priorities of Threads. But in case of operating system NT we have 7 priorities and In case of Solaris its 2^31 priorities(I am not sure about exact figures). I am not sure how Java map these priorities at OS level. Please let me know if your book has details on this topic.
My book does not cover
thread priorities. The C++ standards committee decided that handling of thread priorities was too varied across operating systems, so it was left out of the C++ concurrency facilities. As my book does not cover platform specifics, it does not cover thread priorities.
