- <P>The <B>pthread_rwlock_destroy</B> function shall destroy the
- read-write lock object referenced by <I>rwlock</I> and release any
- resources used by the lock. The effect of subsequent use of the lock
- is undefined until the lock is reinitialized by another call to
- <B>pthread_rwlock_init</B>. An implementation may cause
- <B>pthread_rwlock_destroy</B> to set the object referenced by <I>rwlock</I>
- to an invalid value. Results are undefined if <B>pthread_rwlock_destroy</B>
- is called when any thread holds <I>rwlock</I>. Attempting to destroy
- an uninitialized read-write lock results in undefined behavior.
- </P>
- <P>The <B>pthread_rwlock_init</B> function shall allocate any
- resources required to use the read-write lock referenced by <I>rwlock</I>
- and initializes the lock to an unlocked state with attributes
- referenced by <I>attr</I>. If <I>attr</I> is NULL, the default
- read-write lock attributes shall be used; the effect is the same as
- passing the address of a default read-write lock attributes object.
- Once initialized, the lock can be used any number of times without
- being reinitialized. Results are undefined if <B>pthread_rwlock_init</B>
- is called specifying an already initialized read-write lock. Results
- are undefined if a read-write lock is used without first being
- initialized.
- </P>
- <P>If the <B>pthread_rwlock_init</B> function fails, <I>rwlock</I>
- shall not be initialized and the contents of <I>rwlock</I> are
- undefined.
- </P>
- <P><B>Pthreads-w32</B> supports statically initialized <I>rwlock</I>
- objects using <B>PTHREAD_RWLOCK_INITIALIZER</B>. <SPAN STYLE="font-weight: medium">
- An application should still call <B>pthread_rwlock_destroy</B> at
- some point to ensure that any resources consumed by the read/write
- lock are released.</SPAN></P>
- <P>Only the object referenced by <I>rwlock</I> may be used for
- performing synchronization. The result of referring to copies of that
- object in calls to <B>pthread_rwlock_destroy</B> ,

- <B>pthread_rwlock_wrlock</B> is undefined.

- <P><B>Pthreads-w32</B> defines <B>_POSIX_READER_WRITER_LOCKS</B> in

- <P>If successful, the <B>pthread_rwlock_destroy</B> and
- <B>pthread_rwlock_init</B> functions shall return zero; otherwise, an
- error number shall be returned to indicate the error.
- </P>
- <P>The [EBUSY] and [EINVAL] error checks, if implemented, act as if
- they were performed immediately at the beginning of processing for
- the function and caused an error return prior to modifying the state
- of the read-write lock specified by <I>rwlock</I>.
