NAME

       pthread_equal() - compare two thread identifiers

SYNOPSIS

PARAMETERS

	      t1	First thread ID to be compared.

	      t2	Second thread ID to be compared.

DESCRIPTION

       compares the thread IDs t1 and t2.  are opaque data types. They should be compared only with this function.

RETURN VALUE

       returns a nonzero value if the two thread IDs are equal; otherwise, zero is returned.

       This function does not verify that t1 or t2 are valid thread IDs.

ERRORS

       None.

AUTHOR

       was derived from the IEEE POSIX P1003.1c standard.

NAME

       pthread_equal - compare thread IDs

SYNOPSIS

       #include <pthread.h>

       int pthread_equal(pthread_t t1, pthread_t t2);

       Compile and link with -pthread.

DESCRIPTION

       The pthread_equal() function compares two thread identifiers.

RETURN VALUE

       If the two thread IDs are equal, pthread_equal() returns a nonzero value; otherwise, it returns 0.

ERRORS

       This function always succeeds.

CONFORMING TO

       POSIX.1-2001.

NOTES

       The  pthread_equal()  function  is  necessary  because thread IDs should be considered opaque: there is no portable way for applications to
       directly compare two pthread_t values.
