<p>Cancelability consists of 3 separate states (disabled, deferred,

asynchronous) that can be represented by 2 boolean values.</p>

<p>The default cancelability state is deferred.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>When cancelability is disabled, all cancels are held pending in the target
|
||
|
|
thread until the thread changes the cancelability. When cancelability is
|
||
|
|
deferred, all cancels are held pending in the target thread until the thread
|
||
|
|
changes the cancelability, calls a function which is a cancellation point or
|
||
|
|
calls <strong>pthread_testcancel</strong>(), thus creating a cancellation
|
||
|
|
point. When cancelability is asynchronous, all cancels are acted upon
|
||
|
|
immediately, interrupting the thread with its processing.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p><strong>Note:</strong> It is recommended that your application not use
|
||
|
|
asynchronous thread cancellation through the <strong>
|
||
|
|
PTHREAD_CANCEL_ASYNCHRONOUS</strong> option of <strong>
|
||
|
|
pthread_setcanceltype</strong>(). See the common user errors section of this
|
