    pthread_t
    tis_self (void);

2  –  Arguments

    None

3  –  Description

    This routine allows a thread to obtain its own thread identifier.

    This value becomes meaningless when the thread is destroyed.

    Note that the initial thread in a process can "change identity"
    when thread system initialization completes-that is, when the
    multithreading run-time environment is loaded.

4  –  Return Values

    Returns the thread identifier of the calling thread.

5  –  Associated Routines

       pthread_create()
