FUNCTION
<<raise>>---send a signal
INDEX
raise
INDEX
_raise_r
SYNOPSIS
2000-02-18 03:39:52 +08:00
#include <signal.h>
int raise(int <[sig]>);
int _raise_r(void *<[reent]>, int <[sig]>);
DESCRIPTION
Send the signal <[sig]> (one of the macros from `<<sys/signal.h>>').
This interrupts your program's normal flow of execution, and allows a signal
handler (if you've defined one, using <<signal>>) to take control.
The alternate function <<_raise_r>> is a reentrant version. The extra
argument <[reent]> is a pointer to a reentrancy structure.
RETURNS
The result is <<0>> if <[sig]> was successfully raised, <<1>>
otherwise. However, the return value (since it depends on the normal
flow of execution) may not be visible, unless the signal handler for
<[sig]> terminates with a <<return>> or unless <<SIG_IGN>> is in
effect for this signal.
PORTABILITY
ANSI C requires <<raise>>, but allows the full set of signal numbers
to vary from one implementation to another.
Required OS subroutines: <<getpid>>, <<kill>>.
