<P><B>pthread_self</B> return the thread identifier for the calling
thread.
</P>
<P><B>Pthreads-w32</B> also provides support for <B>Win32</B> native
threads to interact with POSIX threads through the pthreads API.
Whereas all threads created via a call to pthread_create have a POSIX
thread ID and thread state, the library ensures that any Win32 native
threads that interact through the Pthreads API also generate a POSIX
thread ID and thread state when and if necessary. This provides full
<SPAN LANG="en-GB">reciprocity</SPAN> between Win32 and POSIX
threads. Win32 native threads that generate a POSIX thread ID and
state are treated by the library as having been created with the
<B>PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED</B> attribute.</P>
<P>Any Win32 native thread may call <B>pthread_self</B> directly to
return it's POSIX thread identifier. The ID and state will be
generated if it does not already exist. Win32 native threads do not
need to call <B>pthread_self</B> before calling Pthreads-w32 routines
unless that routine requires a pthread_t parameter.</P>
