pthread_m...tr_destroy(3) Library Functions Manual pthread_m...tr_destroy(3) NAME pthread_mutexattr_destroy - Destroys the specified mutex attributes ob- ject. LIBRARY DECthreads POSIX 1003.1c Library (libpthread.so) SYNOPSIS #include <pthread.h> int pthread_mutexattr_destroy( pthread_mutexattr_t *attr); STANDARDS Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry stan- dards as follows: IEEE Std 1003.1c-1995, POSIX System Application Program Interface PARAMETERS Mutex attributes object to be destroyed. DESCRIPTION This routine destroys a mutex attributes object--that is, the object becomes uninitialized. Call this routine when your program no longer needs the specified mutex attributes object. After this routine is called, DECthreads may reclaim the storage used by the mutex attributes object. Mutexes that were created using this attributes object are not affected by the destruction of the mutex at- tributes object. The results of calling this routine are unpredictable, if the attrib- utes object specified in the attr argument does not exist. RETURN VALUES If an error condition occurs, this routine returns an integer value in- dicating the type of error. Possible return values are as follows: Successful completion. The value specified by attr is invalid. ERRORS None RELATED INFORMATION Functions: pthread_mutexattr_init(3) Manuals: Guide to DECthreads and Programmer's Guide delim off pthread_m...tr_destroy(3)
