In that case, it sounds like the #ifdefs for WIN32 in rtpa.c can be changed
to #ifdef for both WIN32 or DARWIN, and the #ifdefs for LINUX in
Top/threads.co can be changed to #ifdef for both LINUX and DARWIN, and
there is a chance that blocking ASIO will start working on OS X.

audio for Windows


Since MacOS X is BSD-based, there is an implementation of pthreads on it.
This is also probably the best route to go, I would guess.

(I found the following info tonight while reading up on MacOS Threading)

"This section describes threading on Mac OS X, which provides five different
threading APIs:
1. Mach threads represent the lowest level threading on the system.
2. POSIX threads (pthreads) are layered on top of Mach threads.
3. Cocoa threads (NSThreads) are layered directly on top of pthreads.
4. Carbon MP tasks, which are API compatible with the MP tasks in Mac OS 9,
are layered on top of pthreads.
5. Carbon Thread Manager cooperative threads, which are also API compatible
with their Mac OS 9 equivalent, are also layered on top of pthreads."
