How did people do futures and asynchronous programming before C++11 introduced the <future> library?
Did they use threads to modify arguments passed in by reference?
Also, futures are just nicely encapsulated threads, right? It's the same mechanisms behind the scenes?

The same way futures are implemented in C++11? Thread pools, mutexes, and atomics have been around for a while.
