The Scalable Event Count Library (SEC_Lib)
------------------------------------------

The SEC Library is a stand-alone package for
distributed synchronization using event counts
and sequencers.

Currently it works with Solaris, SunOS and Linux. 
With Solaris, it can use Solaris LWPS, Solaris
Threads, Solaris POSIX threads or Pthreads package
from Florida State University. Under Linux and
SunOS SEC_Lib will default to using FSU Pthreads.

A detailed description of the SEC_Lib API can be
found in the 'doc' directory.


Installation
------------

Use the configure utility to create the make files
for the library. Configure is invoked as, ./configure
or with options (for Solaris):

    Solaris LWPS:  ./configure --with-threads=lwps
 Solaris Threads:  ./configure --with-threads=sol
Solaris PThreads:  ./configure --with-threads=pthr
    FSU Pthreads:  ./configure --with-threads=fsu

If SEC_Lib will default to using LWPS if a thread
package is not specified.
