posix_spawnattr_init()
QNX SDP8.0C Library ReferenceAPIDeveloper
Initialize a spawn attributes object
Synopsis:
#include <spawn.h>
int posix_spawnattr_init( posix_spawnattr_t *attrp );
Arguments:
- attrp
- A pointer to the spawn attributes object that you want to initialize.
Library:
libc
Use the -l c option to qcc to link against this library. This library is usually included automatically.
Description:
The posix_spawnattr_init() function initializes the given spawn attributes object with the default value for all the attributes. A spawn attributes object is an opaque object of type posix_spawnattr_t (defined in <spawn.h>) that you can use to modify the behavior of posix_spawn() or posix_spawnp(). Changes that you make to the spawn attributes object don't affect any processes that you've already spawned.
You can also use this function to reinitialize a spawn attributes object that you've destroyed by calling posix_spawnattr_destroy().
Note:
- The posix_spawnattr_destroy() function renders the posix_spawnattr_t object unusable. Before you can reuse it (which includes calling posix_spawnattr_destroy() on an already destroyed object), you must reinitialize the object with posix_spawnattr_init().
- POSIX indicates that the results of reinitializing an already initialized posix_spawnattr_t object are undefined. The QNX OS implementation doesn't support the reinitialization of a posix_spawnattr_t object without an intervening destruction of the object. Repeated calls to posix_spawnattr_init() with the same posix_spawnattr_t object could result in a memory leak.
Returns:
- EOK
- Success.
- ENOMEM
- Insufficient memory exists to initialize the spawn attributes object.
Examples:
See posix_spawn().
