<P><B>pthread_detach</B> puts the thread <I>th</I> in the detached
state. This guarantees that the resources consumed by <I>th</I> will
be freed immediately when <I>th</I> terminates. However, this
prevents other threads from synchronizing on the termination of <I>th</I>
using <B>pthread_join</B>. If, when <B>pthread_detach</B> is called,
<I>th</I> has already terminated, all of <I>th</I>'s remaining
resources will be freed.</P>
<P>A thread can be created initially in the detached state, using the
<B>detachstate</B> attribute to <A HREF="pthread_create.html"><B>pthread_create</B>(3)</A>
. In contrast, <B>pthread_detach</B> applies to threads created in
the joinable state, and which need to be put in the detached state
later. 
</P>
<P>After <B>pthread_detach</B> completes, subsequent attempts to
perform <B>pthread_join</B> on <I>th</I> will fail. If another thread
is already joining the thread <I>th</I> at the time <B>pthread_detach</B>
is called, <I>th</I> will be detached and <B>pthread_join</B> will
eventually return when <I>th</I> terminates but may not return with
<I>th</I>'s correct return code. 
</P>
<H2><A HREF="#toc3" NAME="sect3">Return Value</A></H2>
<P>On success, 0 is returned. On error, a non-zero error code is
returned.
