.TH PTHREAD_ONCE 3 LinuxThreads
|
|
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
pthread_once \- once-only initialization
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
#include <pthread.h>
|
|
|
|
pthread_once_t once_control = PTHREAD_ONCE_INIT;
|
|
|
|
int pthread_once(pthread_once_t *once_control, void (*init_routine) (void));
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The purpose of !pthread_once! is to ensure that a piece of
|
|
initialization code is executed at most once. The |once_control|
|
|
argument points to a static or extern variable statically initialized
|
|
to !PTHREAD_ONCE_INIT!.
|
|
|
|
The first time !pthread_once! is called with a given |once_control|
|
|
argument, it calls |init_routine| with no argument and changes the
|
|
value of the |once_control| variable to record that initialization has
|
|
been performed. Subsequent calls to !pthread_once! with the same
|
|
!once_control! argument do nothing.
|
|
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
|
!pthread_once! always returns 0.
|
|
|
|
.SH ERRORS
|
|
None.
