Function Documentation

ngcbThrCancel()

int ngcbThrCancel

(

ngcb_thread_t

thread

)

Cancel a thread defined by its thread-id.

ngcbThrCreate()

int ngcbThrCreate	(	void *(*	startFunc )(void *),
		void *	arg,
		size_t	stack,
		ngcb_thread_t *	thread )

Create a new thread. The stack size is given in bytes. When the stack size is set to zero then the system default value (4M) is used.

ngcbThrEqual()

int ngcbThrEqual	(	ngcb_thread_t	t1,
		ngcb_thread_t	t2 )

Test the equality of the two threads t1 and t2. The function returns non-zero if t1 and t2 refer to the same thread, otherwise zero.

ngcbThrExit()

void ngcbThrExit

(

void *

status

)

Function to be be called when exitig from a thread.

ngcbThrId()

ngcb_thread_t ngcbThrId

(

void

)

Return the thread-id of the calling process.

ngcbThrJoin()

int ngcbThrJoin

(

ngcb_thread_t

thread

)

Waits until the thread given by its thread-id exits.

ngcbThrKill()

int ngcbThrKill	(	ngcb_thread_t	thread,
		int	sig )

Send a signal to a thread defined by its thread-id.
