pthread_e..._status_np(3) Library Functions Manual pthread_e..._status_np(3) NAME pthread_exc_get_status_np - (Macro) Obtains a system-defined error sta- tus from a DECthreads status exception object. LIBRARY DECthreads POSIX 1003.1c Library (libpthread.so) SYNOPSIS #include <pthread_exception.h> int pthread_exc_get_status_np( EXCEPTION *exception, unsigned long *code); STANDARDS None PARAMETERS DECthreads status exception object whose status code is obtained. Re- ceives the system-specific status code associated with the specified DECthreads status exception object. DESCRIPTION This routine obtains and returns the system-specific status value from the DECthreads status exception object specified in the exception argu- ment. This value must have already been associated with the exception object using the pthread_exc_set_status_np(3) routine. In a program that uses DECthreads status exceptions, use this routine within a CATCH, CATCH_ALL, or FINALLY code block to obtain the status code value associated with a caught exception. Note that any exception objects set to the same status value are considered equivalent by DEC- threads. RETURN VALUES If an error condition occurs, this routine returns an integer value in- dicating the type of error. If the routine's exception object argument is a DECthreads status exception, it sets the code argument and return zero (0). Possible return values are as follows: Successful comple- tion. The exception argument is not a valid DECthreads status excep- tion object.
