thr_continue(3C) resumes the execution of a suspended thread. Once a suspended thread is continued, subsequent calls to thr_continue() have no effect.
#include <thread.h> int thr_continue(thread_t tid);
A suspended thread is not awakened by a signal. The signal remains pending until the execution of the thread is resumed by thr_continue() .
pthread_t tid as defined in pthreads is the same as thread_t tid in Oracle Solaris threads. tid values can be used interchangeably either by assignment or through the use of casts.
thread_t tid; /* tid from thr_create()*/ /* pthreads equivalent of Oracle Solaris tid from thread created */ /* with pthread_create()*/ pthread_t ptid; int ret; ret = thr_continue(tid); /* using pthreads ID variable with a cast */ ret = thr_continue((thread_t) ptid)
thr_continue() returns zero after completing successfully. Any other return value indicates that an error occurred. When the following condition occurs, thr_continue() fails and returns the corresponding value.
