pthread_attr_getname_np(3)			    pthread_attr_getname_np(3)

NAME
       pthread_attr_getname_np	- Obtain the object name attribute in a thread
       attributes object

SYNOPSIS
       #include <pthread.h>

       int pthread_attr_getname_np(
	       const pthread_attr_t *attr,
	       char *name,
	       size_t len,
	       void **mbz );

LIBRARY
       DECthreads POSIX 1003.1c Library (libpthread.so)

PARAMETERS
       Address of the thread attributes object whose object name attribute  is
       to be obtained.	Location to store the obtained object name.  Length in
       bytes of buffer at the location specified by name.  Reserved for future
       use. The value must be zero (0).

DESCRIPTION
       This   routine  copies  the  object  name  attribute  from  the	thread
       attributes object specified by attr to the buffer at the location name.
       Before  calling	this  routine,	your  program must allocate the buffer
       indicated by name.  A new thread created using  the  thread  attributes
       object  is  initialized	with  the  object  name	 that  was set in that
       attributes object.

       The object name is a C language string and provides an identifier  that
       is  meaningful  to  a person debugging a DECthreads-based multithreaded
       application.  The maximum number of characters in the  object  name  is
       31.

       If  the	specified thread attributes object has not been previously set
       with an object name, this routine copies a C language null string  into
       the buffer at location name.

       This  routine  contrasts	 with  pthread_getname_np,  which  obtains the
       object name from the thread object for an existing thread.

RETURN VALUES
       If an error condition occurs, this routine  returns  an	integer	 value
       indicating  the	type  of error. Possible return values are as follows:
       Successful completion.  The value specified by attr is invalid.

ERRORS
       None
