PTHREAD_COND_INIT(3) Library Functions Manual PTHREAD_COND_INIT(3)

pthread_cond_initcreate a condition variable

#include <pthread.h>

int
pthread_cond_init(pthread_cond_t *cond, const pthread_condattr_t *attr);

The () function creates a new condition variable, with attributes specified with attr. If attr is NULL the default attributes are used.

If successful, the pthread_cond_init() function will return zero and put the new condition variable id into cond, otherwise an error number will be returned to indicate the error.

The pthread_cond_init() function will fail if:

[]
The value specified by attr is invalid.
[]
The process cannot allocate enough memory to create another condition variable.
[]
The system temporarily lacks the resources to create another condition variable.
