#include <pthread.h>
int pthread_condattr_init(pthread_condattr_t *attr);
Threadsafe: Yes
Signal Safe: Yes

The pthread_condattr_init() function initializes the condition variable attributes object specified by attr to the default attributes. The condition variable attributes object is used to create condition variables with the pthread_cond_init() function.

Attribute	Default value	supported values
pshared	PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE	PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE or PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED

Parameters

attr

(Output) The address of the variable to contain the condition variable attributes object

None.

Return Value

0

pthread_condattr_init() was successful.

value

pthread_condattr_init() was not successful. value is set to indicate the error condition.

If pthread_condattr_init() 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.
