The following code which doesn't exhibit the previously mentioned error: int result = 0; pthread_mutexattr_t mutex_attr; memset(&mutex_attr,0,sizeof(mutex_attr)); if ((result = pthread_mutexattr_init(&mutex_attr)) != 0) { printf("Error - Description: %s\n",stderror(result)); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } Arash Partow __________________________________________________ Be one who knows what they don't know, Instead of being one who knows not what they don't know, Thinking they know everything about all things. http://www.partow.net -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
