Girish -

Yes, you're right: pthread_cancel() does nothing. The official word from Apple is that it will never work. You need to use another method to get your child threads to finish. Polling a global after a quanta of work in the child thread is one method.

I am doing some assignments related to thread in user
space.After doing lots of R & D, I came to know that
"pthread_cancel()" is not working properly.The same
program is working fine on Linux.
