<p>The <strong>pthread_rwlockattr_setpshared</strong>() function sets the current pshared attribute for the read/write attributes object. The process shared attribute indicates whether the read/write lock that is created using the read/write lock attributes object can be shared between threads in separate processes (<strong>PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED</strong>) or shared only between threads in the same process (<strong>PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE</strong>).</p>
<p>Even if the read/write lock in storage is accessible from two separate processes, it cannot be used from both processes unless the process shared attribute is PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED.</p>
