* @mainpage TinyCThread API Reference
*
* @section intro_sec Introduction
* TinyCThread is a minimal, portable implementation of basic threading
* classes for C.
*
* They closely mimic the functionality and naming of the C11 standard, and
* should be easily replaceable with the corresponding standard variants.
*
* @section port_sec Portability
* The Win32 variant uses the native Win32 API for implementing the thread
* classes, while for other systems, the POSIX threads API (pthread) is used.
*
* @section misc_sec Miscellaneous
* The following special keywords are available: #_Thread_local.
*
* For more detailed information, browse the different sections of this
* documentation. A good place to start is:
* tinycthread.h.
*/
/* Which platform are we on? */
/* Activate some POSIX functionality (e.g. clock_gettime and recursive mutexes) */
/* Generic includes */
/* Platform specific includes */
/* Workaround for missing TIME_UTC: If time.h doesn't provide TIME_UTC,
it's quite likely that libc does not support it either. Hence, fall back to
the only other supported time specifier: CLOCK_REALTIME (and if that fails,
we're probably emulating clock_gettime anyway, so anything goes). */

* @def _Thread_local
* Thread local storage keyword.
* A variable that is declared with the @c _Thread_local keyword makes the
* value of the variable local to each thread (known as thread-local storage,
* or TLS). Example usage:
* @code
* // This variable is local to each thread.
* _Thread_local int variable;
* @endcode
* @note The @c _Thread_local keyword is a macro that maps to the corresponding
* compiler directive (e.g. @c __declspec(thread)).
* @note This directive is currently not supported on Mac OS X (it will give
* a compiler error), since compile-time TLS is not supported in the Mac OS X
* executable format. Also, some older versions of MinGW (before GCC 4.x) do
* not support this directive.
