Hi, I was wondering if anyone with some X windows/GTK knowledge could help me out. I am writing an application using GTK which forks a new process to read/write to a file in the background. This works fine, however, when I try to terminate the new process using exit(0) I get an X IO error. This happens even if I set up a signal handler for SIGCHLD. If I terminate the background process using abort() I don't get this error, but it does have the unfortunate side effect of dumping core ! Is there any way of getting around these problems and getting the child process to terminate cleanly ? TIA, Gabriel Finch. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with the word 'unsubscribe' in the subject or body of your message to plug-request@lists.nothinbut.net
