@section Thread-specific Data
|
||||
|
||||
The @glibcadj{} implements functions to allow users to create and manage
|
||||
data specific to a thread. Such data may be destroyed at thread exit,
|
||||
if a destructor is provided. The following functions are defined:
|
||||
|
||||
@table @code
|
||||
|
||||
@item int pthread_key_create (pthread_key_t *@var{key}, void (*@var{destructor})(void*))
|
||||
Create a thread-specific data key for the calling thread, referenced by
|
||||
@var{key}.
|
||||
|
||||
Objects declared with the C++11 @code{thread_local} keyword are destroyed
|
||||
before thread-specific data, so they should not be used in thread-specific
|
||||
data destructors or even as members of the thread-specific data, since the
|
||||
latter is passed as an argument to the destructor function.
|
||||
|
||||
@item int pthread_key_delete (pthread_key_t @var{key})
|
||||
Destroy the thread-specific data @var{key} in the calling thread. The
|
||||
destructor for the thread-specific data is not called during destruction, nor
|
||||
is it called during thread exit.
|
||||
|
||||
@item void *pthread_getspecific (pthread_key_t @var{key})
|
||||
Return the thread-specific data associated with @var{key} in the calling
|
||||
thread.
|
||||
|
||||
@item int pthread_setspecific (pthread_key_t @var{key}, const void *@var{value})
|
||||
Associate the thread-specific @var{value} with @var{key} in the calling thread.
