Detailed Description

The class implements working with POSIX signals.

Member Function Documentation

unsigned int PosixSignal::byName ( const std::string &  name )

staticprotected

Translate name of a signal to its internal representation.

void PosixSignal::handle ( const std::string &  name, Handler  handler  )

static

Install a handler for the given signal name.

Parameters

name	Name of the signal to handle
handler	Handler to be used

static void BeeeOn::PosixSignal::ignore ( const std::string &  name )

static

Ignore the selected signal to not influence the current process (SIG_IGN).

Parameters

name	Name of the signal to be ignored

static void BeeeOn::PosixSignal::send ( long  pid, const std::string  name  )

static

Send signal to a process of the given pid.

Parameters

pid	Process ID
name	Name of the signal to send (e.g. SIGUSR1)

static void BeeeOn::PosixSignal::send ( const Poco::Thread &  thread, const std::string &  name  )

static

Send signal to a thread owning by this process. We assume that the Poco::Thread is using pthread internally. The implementation calls pthread_kill() to send the signal to the proper thread.

Parameters

thread	Thread to send the signal to
name	Name of the signal to send

void PosixSignal::trapFatal ( )

static

Install appropriate handlers for the most fatal signals like SIGSEGV, SIGBUS, etc. The application would provide some more information during the actual crash. The handlers terminates the application by calling _exit().
