Fork in thread...

Hi friends,

can any one tell me, Suppose a new thread is created, within that thread we use a system call called fork(), if new process contains two threads or one?

Regards,
VardhanReddy.

New process will be created if fork() system call is used.
to create a new thread in Linux you have to use "pthread_create" function more is available, please Google "POSIX thread (pthread) libraries"
