  pthread_t tis_self(
	  void );

DESCRIPTION

  This routine allows a thread to obtain its own thread identifier.

  This value becomes meaningless when the thread is destroyed.

  The initial thread in a process can "change identity" when thread system
  initialization completes--that is, when the DECthreads multithreading run-
  time environment is loaded.


RETURN VALUES

  Returns the thread identifier of the calling thread.


ERRORS

  None
