BloombergLP::bslmt::ThreadUtilImpl<Platform::PosixThreads>::create

Synopses

Declared in <bslmt_threadutilimpl_pthread.h>

Create a new thread of program control having platform specific default attributes (i.e., "stack size", "scheduling priority"), that invokes the specified function with a single argument specified by userData, and load into the specified threadHandle, an identifier that may be used to refer to the thread in future calls to this utility. Return 0 on success, and a non-zero value otherwise. The behavior is undefined if the threadHandle is 0. Note that unless explicitly "detached" (detach), a call to join must be made once the thread terminates to reclaim any system resources associated with the newly created identifier.

    Handle* threadHandle,

Create a new thread of program control having the specified attributes that invokes the specified function with a single argument specified by userData, and load into the specified threadHandle an identifier that may be used to refer to the thread in future calls to this utility. Return 0 on success, and a non-zero value otherwise. The behavior is undefined if the specified thread is 0 or if attributes.stackSize() has been set to a negative value other than the unset value. Note that unless explicitly "detached" (by detach), or unless the BSLMT_CREATE_DETACHED attribute is specified, a call to join must be made once the thread terminates to reclaim any system resources associated with the newly created identifier.
