Hi Cooper,

I donno whether this basic example will be enough for ur requirement, 
anyway here it is,
You can try creating the thread like...
void func(void);
main()
{
    pthread_t tid;
    retVal = pthread_create(&tid, NULL, (void *)func, (void *) NULL);
    /* validate here with retVal */
}

void
func(void)
{
    pthread_detach(pthread_self()); /* if detached thread */
    /* some printf */
}

Pls ignore if this is very basic.

Regards
-Raghu
