<h4><a name="tag_03_488_03"></a>DESCRIPTION</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>The <i>detachstate</i> attribute controls whether the thread is created in a detached state. If the thread is created detached,
then use of the ID of the newly created thread by the <a href="../functions/pthread_detach.html"><i>pthread_detach</i>()</a> or <a
href="../functions/pthread_join.html"><i>pthread_join</i>()</a> function is an error.</p>
<p>The <i>pthread_attr_getdetachstate</i>() and <i>pthread_attr_setdetachstate</i>() functions, respectively, shall get and set the
<i>detachstate</i> attribute in the <i>attr</i> object.</p>
<p>For <i>pthread_attr_getdetachstate</i>(), <i>detachstate</i> shall be set to either PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED or
PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE.</p>
<p>For <i>pthread_attr_setdetachstate</i>(), the application shall set <i>detachstate</i> to either PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED or
PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE.</p>
<p>A value of PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED shall cause all threads created with <i>attr</i> to be in the detached state, whereas using a
value of PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE shall cause all threads created with <i>attr</i> to be in the joinable state. The default value of
the <i>detachstate</i> attribute shall be PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE.</p>
</blockquote>
<h4><a name="tag_03_488_04"></a>RETURN VALUE</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>Upon successful completion, <i>pthread_attr_getdetachstate</i>() and <i>pthread_attr_setdetachstate</i>() shall return a value
of 0; otherwise, an error number shall be returned to indicate the error.</p>
<p>The <i>pthread_attr_getdetachstate</i>() function stores the value of the <i>detachstate</i> attribute in <i>detachstate</i> if
successful.</p>
</blockquote>
<h4><a name="tag_03_488_05"></a>ERRORS</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>The <i>pthread_attr_setdetachstate</i>() function shall fail if:</p>
<dl compact>
<dt>[EINVAL]</dt>
<dd>The value of <i>detachstate</i> was not valid</dd>
</dl>
<p>These functions shall not return an error code of [EINTR].</p>

<h4><a name="tag_03_488_11"></a>CHANGE HISTORY</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>First released in Issue 5. Included for alignment with the POSIX Threads Extension.</p>
</blockquote>
<h4><a name="tag_03_488_12"></a>Issue 6</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>The <i>pthread_attr_setdetachstate</i>() and <i>pthread_attr_getdetachstate</i>() functions are marked as part of the Threads
option.</p>
<p>The DESCRIPTION is updated to avoid use of the term &quot;must&quot; for application requirements.</p>
