Trying to compile code containing c++11 and with g++(provided by Mingw) on windows 7 x64. The part that fails is.

#include <thread>
#include <mutex>
#include <iostream> 
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <Windows.h>
using namespace std;
mutex locka;
thread *threads_a = new thread[20];

Compiling with -std=c++11 and -pthreads. Getting errors:

'mutex' does not name a type
'thread' does not name a type

Any suggestions how to compile this? I need to use C++11 so i can't look at alternatives.

I think mingw is missing threading stuff still – Mooing Duck May 08 '14 at 21:08
Which version of Mingw? – lethal-guitar May 08 '14 at 21:09
Version 4.8.1 if understood the question. – user3215354 May 08 '14 at 21:12
Got it to work, too bad that it is 4 am and i no longer remember which of those things i downloaded. Now i only need to figure out how to not use Thread_local or to code it in way that it isn't needed. – user3215354 May 09 '14 at 01:10
