Thanks Glynn.

I have tried to set the RLIMIT_RTPRIO to 100 through
/etc/security/limits.conf. It was not defined previously, so I have
defined in the following way.

domain       type    item     value
#@srinivasg  soft    rtprio   100

After adding the above statement, I have restarted the system.

Then, I run my simple thread program. There is no luck. I got the same
error. I have posted the simple thread program in my first email.

What am I missing here? Please advice.

Thanks and Regards,
