PTHREAD_ATTR(3) BSD Library Functions Manual PTHREAD_ATTR(3)NAME
pthread_attr_destroy, pthread_attr_init -- thread attribute operations
SYNOPSIS
#include <pthread.h>
int
pthread_attr_destroy(pthread_attr_t *attr);
int
pthread_attr_init(pthread_attr_t *attr);
DESCRIPTION
Thread attributes are used to specify parameters to pthread_create(). One attribute object can be used in multiple calls to
pthread_create(), with or without modifications between calls.
The pthread_attr_init() function initializes attr with all the default thread attributes.
The pthread_attr_destroy() function destroys attr.
RETURN VALUES
If successful, these functions return 0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.
ERRORS
pthread_attr_init() will fail if:
[ENOMEM] Out of memory.
pthread_attr_destroy() will fail if:
[EINVAL] Invalid value for attr.
SEE ALSO pthread_create(3)STANDARDS
pthread_attr_init(), pthread_attr_destroy() conform to ISO/IEC 9945-1:1996 (``POSIX.1'')

DESCRIPTION
Thread attributes are used to specify parameters to pthread_create(). One attribute object can be used in multiple calls to
pthread_create(), with or without modifications between calls.
The pthread_attr_init() function initializes attr with all the default thread attributes.
The pthread_attr_destroy() function destroys attr.
The pthread_attr_set*() functions set the attribute that corresponds to each function name.
The pthread_attr_get*() functions copy the value of the attribute that corresponds to each function name to the location pointed to by the
second function parameter.
RETURN VALUES
If successful, these functions return 0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The pthread_attr_init() function will fail if:
[ENOMEM] Out of memory.
The pthread_attr_destroy() function will fail if:
[EINVAL] Invalid value for attr.
