The pthreads APIThe POSIX pthreads standard provides a flat C API for managing threads. Eli Bendersky wrote an article that highlighted many of the good API design techniques used in that API. For example, it is simple and orthogonal, consistent, employs logical naming, uses opaque types that hide internal details, and uses attribute objects to reducing function parameter lists. This article is a good read for those interested in examples of good C APIs. |
