Function
GLibThreadcreate
deprecated: 2.32
Declaration
GThread*
g_thread_create (
GThreadFunc func,
gpointer data,
gboolean joinable,
GError** error
)
Description
This function creates a new thread.
The new thread executes the function func with the argument data.
If the thread was created successfully, it is returned.
error can be NULL to ignore errors, or non-NULL to report errors.
The error is set, if and only if the function returns NULL.
This function returns a reference to the created thread only if
joinable is TRUE. In that case, you must free this reference by
calling g_thread_unref() or g_thread_join(). If joinable is FALSE
then you should probably not touch the return value.
Deprecated since: 2.32
Use g_thread_new() instead.
This function is not directly available to language bindings.
