thr_exit(3scl)							thr_exit(3scl)

NAME
       thr_exit - Terminates the calling thread.

LIBRARY
       SCL Threads Library (libthread.so)

SYNOPSIS
       #include <thread.h>

       void thr_exit(
		      void *value_ptr );

PARAMETERS
       Return-value  from  thread  which  if  this  thread  is joinable can be
       obtained by another thread calling thr_join(3scl).

DESCRIPTION
       This routine terminates the calling thread. If this thread is  joinable
       (non-detached),	then the value_ptr argument is stored as this thread's
       return-value, which another thread can obtain by calling thr_join(3scl)
       and specifying the terminating thread ID.

       Note   that   if	  the  main  thread  does  not	terminate  by  calling
       thr_exit(3scl), then its termination will terminate the whole process.

SCL IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
       thr_exit(3scl) is implemented by calling pthread_exit(3).

RETURN VALUES
       None. The thr_exit(3scl) function terminates the thread, and so	cannot
       return to its caller.

ERRORS
       None.
