PTHREAD_ATTR_GETDETACHSTATE(3C)		       PTHREAD_ATTR_GETDETACHSTATE(3C)

NAME
       pthread_attr_getdetachstate,  pthread_attr_setdetachstate  - get or set
       detachstate attribute

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

       int pthread_attr_setdetachstate(pthread_attr_t *attr,
	    int detachstate);

       int pthread_attr_getdetachstate(const pthread_attr_t *attr,
	    int *detachstate);

DESCRIPTION
       The detachstate attribute controls whether the thread is created	 in  a
       detached	 state. If the thread is created detached, then use of the  ID
       of the newly created thread by the pthread_detach()  or	pthread_join()
       function is an error.

       The  pthread_attr_setdetachstate()  and	pthread_attr_getdetachstate(),
       respectively, set and get the detachstate attribute in the attr object.

       The detachstate	can  be	 set  to  either   PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED  or
       PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE. A value of  PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED causes all
       threads created with attr to be in the detached state, whereas using  a
       value  of  PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE causes all threads created with attr
       to be in the joinable state.  The  default  value  of  the  detachstate
       attribute is PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE.

RETURN VALUES
       Upon    successful    completion,   pthread_attr_setdetachstate()   and
       pthread_attr_getdetachstate() return a value of	0. Otherwise, an error
       number is returned to indicate the error.

       The  pthread_attr_getdetachstate()  function  stores  the  value of the
       detachstate attribute in detachstate if successful.

ERRORS
       The  pthread_attr_setdetachstate()   or	 pthread_attr_getdetachstate()
       functions may fail if:

       EINVAL
		 attr or detachstate is invalid.
