PTHREAD_KEY_DELETE(3) Library Functions Manual PTHREAD_KEY_DELETE(3) NAME pthread_key_delete -- delete a thread-specific data key LIBRARY POSIX Threads Library (libpthread, -lpthread) SYNOPSIS #include <pthread.h> int pthread_key_delete(pthread_key_t key); DESCRIPTION The pthread_key_delete() function deletes a thread-specific data key previously returned by pthread_key_create(). The thread-specific data values associated with key need not be NULL at the time that pthread_key_delete() is called. It is the responsibility of the appli- cation to free any application storage or perform any cleanup actions for data structures related to the deleted key or associated thread- specific data in any threads; this cleanup can be done either before or after pthread_key_delete() is called. Any attempt to use key following the call to pthread_key_delete() results in undefined behavior. The pthread_key_delete() function is callable from within destructor functions. Destructor functions are not invoked by pthread_key_delete(). Any destructor function that may have been asso- ciated with key will no longer be called upon thread exit. RETURN VALUES If successful, the pthread_key_delete() function will return zero. Otherwise an error number will be returned to indicate the error. ERRORS The pthread_key_delete() function will fail if: [EINVAL] The key value is invalid. SEE ALSO pthread_getspecific(3), pthread_key_create(3), pthread_setspecific(3) STANDARDS The pthread_key_delete() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9945-1:1996 ("POSIX.1").
