NAME

posix_spawnattr_getpgroup, posix_spawnattr_setpgroup – get and set the spawn-pgroup attribute of a spawn attributes object

CONTENTS

LIBRARY

Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

#include <spawn.h>

int
posix_spawnattr_getpgroup(const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attr, pid_t *restrict pgroup);

int
posix_spawnattr_setpgroup(posix_spawnattr_t *attr, pid_t pgroup);

DESCRIPTION

The posix_spawnattr_getpgroup() function obtains the value of the spawn-pgroup attribute from the attributes object referenced by attr.

The posix_spawnattr_setpgroup() function sets the spawn-pgroup attribute in an initialized attributes object referenced by attr.

The spawn-pgroup attribute represents the process group to be joined by the new process image in a spawn operation (if POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP is set in the spawn-flags attribute). The default value of this attribute is zero.

RETURN VALUES

The posix_spawnattr_getpgroup() and posix_spawnattr_setpgroup() functions return zero.

“ "I liken starting one's computing career with Unix, say as an undergraduate, to being born in East Africa. It is intolerably hot, your body is covered with lice and flies, you are malnourished and you suffer from numerous curable diseases. But, as far as young East Africans can tell, this is simply the natural condition and they live within it. By the time they find out differently, it is too late. They already think that the writing of shell scripts is a natural act." ”
