.Dd July 9, 2010 .Dt PTHREAD_ATTR_GETDETACHSTATE 3 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm pthread_attr_getdetachstate , .Nm pthread_attr_setdetachstate .Nd get and set the .Dq detach state attribute .Sh LIBRARY .Lb libpthread .Sh SYNOPSIS n pthread.h .Ft int .Fn pthread_attr_getdetachstate "const pthread_attr_t *attr" "int *detachstate" .Ft int .Fn pthread_attr_setdetachstate "pthread_attr_t *attr" "int detachstate" .Sh DESCRIPTION The attribute parameters for the .Fn pthread_attr_getdetachstate and .Fn pthread_attr_setdetachstate functions are mutually exclusive and must be one of: l -tag -width PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED -offset 2n t Dv PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE The threads must explicitly be waited for using the .Xr pthread_join 3 function once they exit for their status to be received and their resources to be freed. This is the default. t Dv PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED The thread's resources will automatically be freed once the thread exits, and the thread will not be joined. .El

p If the thread is created as detached, it is an error to use the thread ID with .Xr pthread_detach 3 or .Xr pthread_join 3 . .Sh RETURN VALUES If successful, these functions return 0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error. .Sh ERRORS No errors are defined for .Fn pthread_attr_getdetachstate .

p The .Fn pthread_attr_setdetachstate function should fail if: l -tag -width Er t Bq Er EINVAL The value specified by .Fa detachstate is invalid. .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr pthread_attr 3 , .Xr pthread_detach 3 , .Xr pthread_join 3 .Sh STANDARDS Both functions conform to .St -p1003.1-2001 .
