[PD] [coll] bug

[Dan Wilcox]

If you just need the common thread callback function and a mutex, you can do that with the Windows API. It’s not too difficult.

See the old thread implementation used by OpenFrameworks which uses both pthread & win api, depending on the platform:

ofxThread.h <https://github.com/openframeworks/openFrameworks/blob/6e7d325ec6f0046f281498797748da173a84aa7e/libs/openFrameworks/utils/ofThread.h>
ofxThread.cpp <https://github.com/openframeworks/openFrameworks/blob/6e7d325ec6f0046f281498797748da173a84aa7e/libs/openFrameworks/utils/ofThread.cpp>

Then you wouldn’t need to require win-pthreads32 or similar compatibility library when building.
