cmake pthread

CMake is a cross-platform build system that helps automate the process of building software. It provides a simple syntax for describing the build process, allowing developers to specify the source files, libraries, and dependencies required to build their software.

pthread is a library for POSIX threads (threads for the Unix-like operating systems). It provides a set of functions for creating, managing, and synchronizing threads. pthread is often used in multi-threaded applications to take advantage of the multiple cores available on modern processors, improving the performance of the application.

When using CMake to build an application that uses pthread, you need to include the pthread library in your CMakeLists.txt file. This can be done by adding the following line:

target_link_libraries(your_target_name pthread)

Replace "your_target_name" with the name of your target executable. This tells CMake to link the pthread library with your application when it is built.
