Haiku developer Stephan Assmus (Stippi) has posted the first in a series of articles on the topics of multithreaded applications. Stephan writes: "Though I am programming on BeOS since 1999, only in recent years I have slowly become more comfortable with various multithreading related issues in my programs. So I thought I'd like to share some of my experiences here for beginning programmers or programmers skeptical about multithreading. I hope to be extending this as a series of articles to help learn the benefits and pitfalls of multithreading. All with an emphasis on programming for Haiku's API."

This is an excellent article. I learned to write code on BeOS, so I consider myself pretty spoiled, API-wise. The multithreaded nature of the OS doesn't really pose that many problems, but beginners or those who started on other platforms will find this a tripping point unless they already have this kind of experience (not as common as you might think) or they are given some sort of introduction like stippi has graciously done. Fine work, if you asked me.
