Can we use pthread instead of NSThread in iPhone apps

app-store, c++, ios, objective-c

Solution

`NSThread` is built around `pthread` anyway

I can't see any reason why using `pthread` would lead to rejection from Apple's part

Problem

Well I have an application that uses both Objective C & c++ but for portability reasons I have tried to use c++ as much as possible.... Now I am confronted with some problem that requires threads I was thinking of using `pthread` instead of `NSThread`... is it Okay to use `pthread`? Will Apple punish me for using it by rejecting my app on the appstore...?
