/******************************************************************************
* FILE: condvar.c
* DESCRIPTION:
* Example code for using Pthreads condition variables. The main thread
* creates three threads. Two of those threads increment a "count" variable,
* while the third thread watches the value of "count". When "count"
* reaches a predefined limit, the waiting thread is signaled by one of the
* incrementing threads. The waiting thread "awakens" and then modifies
* count. The program continues until the incrementing threads reach
* TCOUNT. The main program prints the final value of count.
* SOURCE: Adapted from example code in "Pthreads Programming", B. Nichols
* et al. O'Reilly and Associates.
* LAST REVISED: 10/14/10 Blaise Barney
