This is not only not going to be added to glibc, it's also not guaranteed to work (probably doesn't work today) and can break in interesting ways at any time. Cancellation, as the word already suggests, is final. There mustn't be any catch without rethrow. The thread library does, and will probably even more so in future, alter the state of the library once a thread is canceled and this is not reversible. --=20 =E2=9E=A7 Ulrich Drepper =E2=9E=A7 Red Hat, Inc. =E2=9E=A7 444 Castro St = =E2=9E=A7 Mountain View, CA =E2=9D=96 --=20 Phil-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/phil-list
