Re: [Wrapper-user] Timer Thread not created on HPUX IA64

[Leif M. <le...@ta...>]

Bill,
    I was hoping someone else might have some information on this.   I 
unfortunately
do not have any HPUX systems to test with personally.   I reviewed the 
man page
for the pthread_create command on HP-UX and everything appears to be fine.
http://www.calpoly.edu/cgi-bin/man-cgi?pthread_create+3

    What does the man page on your actual system say?

The relevant code follows:
---
void *timerRunner(void *arg) {
    /* snip */
    return NULL;
}
int initializeTimer() {
    int res;
    res = pthread_create(
        &timerThreadId,
        NULL, /* No attributes. */
        timerRunner,
        NULL); /* No parameters need to be passed to the thread. */
    if (res) {
        log_printf(WRAPPER_SOURCE_WRAPPER, LEVEL_FATAL,
            "Unable to create a timer thread: %d, %s", res, 
getLastErrorText());
        return 1;
    } else {
        return 0;
    }
}
---

Cheers,
Leif
