.TH "al_run_detached_thread" "3" "" "Allegro reference manual" ""
.SH NAME
.PP
al_run_detached_thread \- Allegro 5 API
.SH SYNOPSIS
.IP
.nf
\f[C]
#include\ <allegro5/allegro.h>

void\ al_run_detached_thread(void\ *(*proc)(void\ *arg),\ void\ *arg)
\f[]
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
Runs the passed function in its own thread, with \f[C]arg\f[] passed to
it as only parameter.
This is similar to calling al_create_thread(3), al_start_thread(3) and
(after the thread has finished) al_destroy_thread(3) \- but you
don\[aq]t have the possibility of ever calling al_join_thread(3) on the
thread.
