再来一篇关于线程的文章,大家应该理解上就没有任何问题了吧!

pthread_join()--Wait for and Detach Thread:  from


  Syntax:
#include 
int pthread_join(pthread_t thread, void **status);

  Threadsafe:
Yes

  Signal Safe: No


The pthread_join() function waits for a thread to terminate,
detaches the thread, then returns the threads exit status.


If the status parameter is NULL, the threads exit
status is not returned.


The meaning of the threads exit status (value returned to the status
memory location) is determined by the application, except for the following
conditions:

  1. When the thread has been canceled using pthread_cancel(),
    the exit status of PTHREAD_CANCELED is made available.
  2. When the thread has been terminated as a result of an unhandled OS/400
    exception, operator intervention or other proprietary OS/400 mechanism, the exit
    status of PTHREAD_EXCEPTION_NP is made available.

Eventually, you should call pthread_join(),
pthread_detach() or pthread_extendedjoin_np()
without specifying the leaveThreadAllocated option for every thread
that is created joinable (with a detach state of
PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE) so that the system can reclaim all
resources associated with the thread. Failure to join to or detach joinable
threads causes memory and other resource leaks until the process ends.

Authorities and Locks

None.


Parameters

thread
(Input) Pthread handle to the target thread
status
(Output) Address of the variable to receive the thread's exit status


Return Value  0

pthread_join() was successful.
value
pthread_join() was not successful. value is set to
indicate the error condition. Error Conditions

If pthread_join() was not successful, the error condition
returned usually indicates one of the following errors. Under some conditions,
the value returned could indicate an error other than those listed here.


[EINVAL]

The value specified for the argument is not correct.
[ESRCH]
The thread specified could not be found.

Example

#define _MULTI_THREADED
#include 
#include 
#include "check.h"

int  okStatus        = 34;

void *threadfunc(void *parm)
{
  printf("Inside secondary thread\n");
  return __VOID(okStatus);
}

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  pthread_t             thread;
  int                   rc=0;
  void                 *status;

  printf("Enter Testcase - %s\n", argv[0]);

  printf("Create thread using attributes that allow join\n");
  rc = pthread_create(&thread, NULL, threadfunc, NULL);
  checkResults("pthread_create()\n", rc);

  printf("Wait for the thread to exit\n");
  rc = pthread_join(thread, &status);
  checkResults("pthread_join()\n", rc);
  if (__INT(status) != okStatus) {
    printf("Secondary thread failed\n");
    exit(1);
  }

  printf("Got secondary thread status as expected\n");
  printf("Main completed\n");
  return 0;
}


Output:


Enter Testcase - QP0WTEST/TPJOIN0
Create thread using attributes that allow join
Wait for the thread to exit
Inside secondary thread
Got secondary thread status as expected
Main completed
