pthread_mutex_setname_np()

assign name to mutex 

Function


SYNOPSIS

#include <pthread.h>

int pthread_mutex_setname_np(pthread_mutex_t *mutex, const char *name);


DESCRIPTION

The pthread_mutex_setname_np() function assigns the specified name to the specified mutex. This is useful for debugging purposes, so that mutexes can be identified symbolically. If a name is specified for a mutex, it will be displayed by the NuTCRACKER Platform debugging utilities. The name can be obtained programmatically with the pthread_mutex_getname_np() function.


PARAMETERS
