Pthreads-Win32

OpenRM Scene Graph requires and implementation of Posix threads (pthreads). We have had tremendous success using Ross Johnson's pthreads-win32 implementation. If the Redhat server is too busy, you can grab a copy of Ross's May 10, 2003 distribution from the R3vis website. Alternatively, you can grab a more compact version of the 10 May 2003 distribution that we used for OpenRM 1.5.0 development and testing.

The JPEG-6b Library for Windows

We have compiled the JPEG-6b library using MSVC++ 6.0 and placed the header files and libraries into a self-extracting .exe you can grab from the R3vis website. (We warrant that the .exe is free from viruses and won't do anything nasty to your machine. We do not guarantee that it will work for you. It does work for us. Please don't ask us for support - this is not our software. We are providing a pre-built version as a courtesy. If in doubt, grab the JPEG source from Independent JPEG Group's website. and build the libraries for yourself.)
