pthread_self - return identifier of current thread +

Synopsis

#include <pthread.h> +

pthread_t pthread_self(void); +

Description

pthread_self return the thread identifier for the calling +thread. +

Pthreads-w32 also provides support for Win32 native +threads to interact with POSIX threads through the pthreads API. +Whereas all threads created via a call to pthread_create have a POSIX +thread ID and thread state, the library ensures that any Win32 native +threads that interact through the Pthreads API also generate a POSIX +thread ID and thread state when and if necessary. This provides full +reciprocity between Win32 and POSIX +threads. Win32 native threads that generate a POSIX thread ID and +state are treated by the library as having been created with the +PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED attribute.

Any Win32 native thread may call pthread_self directly to +return it's POSIX thread identifier. The ID and state will be +generated if it does not already exist. Win32 native threads do not +need to call pthread_self before calling Pthreads-w32 routines +unless that routine requires a pthread_t parameter.
