If your application is using only the 'inproc' transport for +messaging you may set this to zero, otherwise set it to at least one. + +.Thread safety +A 'context' is thread safe and may be shared among as many application +threads as necessary, without any additional locking required on the part of +the caller. + + +RETURN VALUE +------------ +The _xs_init()_ function shall return an opaque handle to the initialised +'context' if successful. Otherwise it shall return NULL and set 'errno' to one +of the values defined below. + + +ERRORS +------ +*EINVAL*:: +An invalid number of 'io_threads' was requested. + + +SEE ALSO +-------- +linkxs:xs[7] +linkxs:xs_term[3] + + +AUTHORS +------- +The Crossroads documentation was written by Martin Sustrik <sustrik@250bpm.com> +and Martin Lucina <martin@lucina.net>. |
