[newbie] pthread_kill() not killing

[Steven Vacca]

Does anyone have a good example of using pthread_kill()?

Here is how I'm executing it, test-wise.  When signal() and
pthread_kill() are executed, they return 0 (no err), but the
thread continues to execute.

volatile int  sigCaught = 0;


void  func1(char cmd)
{
  switch (cmd)
    {
    case START_THREAD_1:
      
        signal(SIGINT,sigFunc);
        pthread_create(&thrdHndl,NULL,(void*) thread_1,(void*) "-");
        break;

    case KILL_THREAD_1:

        pthread_kill(thrdHndl,SIGINT);
        break;
    }
}



void  sigFunc(int sigNum)
{
  sigCaught = 1;
}




void  thread_1()
{
  while (1)
    {
    printf("I'm active\n");
    delay();
    }
}
