<P><B>pthread_win32_test_features_np</B> allows an application to
check which run-time auto-detected features are available within the
library.</P>
<P>The possible features are:</P>
<P><B>PTW32_SYSTEM_INTERLOCKED_COMPARE_EXCHANGE</B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-left: 2cm">Return TRUE if the Win32 version of
InterlockedCompareExchange() is being used. On IA32 systems the
library can use optimised and inlinable assembler versions of
InterlockedExchange() and InterlockedCompareExchange().</P>
<P><B>PTW32_ALERTABLE_ASYNC_CANCEL</B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-left: 2cm">Return TRUE if the QueueUserAPCEx package
QUSEREX.DLL and the AlertDrv.sys driver was detected. This package
provides alertable (pre-emptive) asynchronous threads cancellation.
If this feature returns FALSE then the default async cancel scheme is
in use, which cannot cancel blocked threads.</P>
<H2><A HREF="#toc3" NAME="sect3">Cancellation</A></H2>
