pthread_atfork missing in libpthread

807578Sep 25 2002 — edited Sep 30 2002
Hi,

we're using pthread_atfork in a library that we distribute to partners. One of our partners tried using this library on a server with Solaris 8 Feb 2002 edition (latest recommended patches), and complained that our library does not work.

After some investigation it turns out that pthread_atfork was removed from the pthread library? We haven't been able to find any information about this. The man page for fork states "A Solaris threads application must explicitly link with -lpthread to access pthread_atfork()" - and we do that.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Brian Rasmusson
