<p>The <strong>pthread_setspecific</strong>() function sets the thread local
|
||
|
storage <em>value</em> associated with a <em>key</em>. The
|
||
|
<strong>pthread_setspecific</strong>() function may be called fromwithin a data
|
||
|
destructor.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The thread local storage value is a variable of type void * that is local to
|
||
|
a thread, but global to all of the functions called within that thread. It is
|
||
|
accessed by the key.</p>
