PTHREADS(3)		    BSD Programmer's Manual		   PTHREADS(3)

NAME
     pthreads - POSIX 1003.1c standard threads API.

SYNOPSIS
     #include <pthread.h>

DESCRIPTION
     The pthreads API provides a IEEE Std1003.1c (``POSIX'') standard inter-
     face implementing multiple threads of execution within a traditional user
     process.  This implementation is currently user-space only.  Pthreads
     provides functions for thread creation and destruction, an interface to
     the thread scheduler to establish thread scheduling parameters, and mutex
     and condition variables to provide mechanisms for the programmer to syn-
     chronize access to shared process resources.

     The pthreads library routines are a part of the C library.	 The pthreads
     system is automatically initialized when a program calls pthread_create()
     to instantiate a thread.

     The SYNOPSIS sections of the following manual pages indicate which in-
     clude files are to be used, what the compiler declaration for the func-
     tion looks like and which external variables are of interest.

STANDARDS
     The pthreads library conforms to IEEE Std1003.1c (``POSIX'').
