This PR adds an optional parameter to
pool_init
that allows you to define a procedure to be called on thread exit for each of the threads in the pool.I think this won't be widely used, but for some situations it may come in handy.
For instance, in my case, I'm using SDL3 in my project, and I use a thread pool to load some images with SDL Image. SDL allocates some data per thread for error strings and some other stuff.
To ensure that gets cleaned up, you must call
CleanupTLS
per thread, but using a thread pool, there's no easy way to do that.This PR would make that trivial.
