NAME

       pthread_equal - compare thread IDs

SYNOPSIS

       cc -mt [ flag... ] file... -lpthread [ library... ]
       #include <pthread.h>

       int pthread_equal(pthread_t t1, pthread_t t2);

DESCRIPTION

       The pthread_equal() function compares the thread IDs t1 and t2.

RETURN VALUES

       The pthread_equal() function returns a non-zero value if t1 and t2 are equal. Otherwise,  0 is returned.

       If  t1 or t2 is an invalid thread  ID, the behavior is undefined.

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.

NOTES

       Solaris thread IDs do not require an equivalent function because the thread_t structure is an unsigned int.
