tis_cond_destroy(3)  —  Subroutines

NAME

tis_cond_destroy − Destroys the specified condition variable

SYNOPSIS

#include <tis.h>
int tis_cond_destroy(
        pthread_cond_t ∗cond );

LIBRARY

Standard C Library (libc.so, libc.a)

STANDARDS

None

PARAMETERS

cond
Address of the condition variable (passed by reference) to be destroyed.

DESCRIPTION

This routine destroys the condition variable specified by cond.  After this routine is called, DECthreads may reclaim internal storage used by the condition variable object. Call this routine when a condition variable will no longer be referenced. 

The results of this routine are unpredictable if the condition variable specified in cond does not exist or is not initialized. 

For more information about actions when threads are present, refer to the pthread_cond_destroy(3) description. 

RETURN VALUES

If an error condition occurs, this routine returns an integer value indicating the type of error.  Possible return values are as follows:

0Successful completion. 

[EBUSY]
The object being referenced by cond is being referenced by another thread that is currently executing tis_cond_wait(3) on the condition variable specified in cond.  (This error can only occur when threads are present.) 

[EINVAL]
The value specified by cond is not a valid condition variable. 

ERRORS

None
