Use the -l c option to qcc to link against this library. This library is usually included automatically.

The pthread_mutex_destroy() function destroys the unlocked mutex mutex.

You can destroy a locked mutex only if you're the owner of that mutex.

Note: Once you've destroyed a mutex, don't reuse it without reinitializing it by calling pthread_mutex_init().
