apr_procattr_t attr,
apr_pool_t cont 
)

Create a new process and execute a new program within that process.

Parameters:
new_proc The resulting process handle.
progname The program to run
args the arguments to pass to the new program. The first one should be the program name.
env The new environment table for the new process. This should be a list of NULL-terminated strings. This argument is ignored for APR_PROGRAM_ENV, APR_PROGRAM_PATH, and APR_SHELLCMD_ENV types of commands.

apr_status_t apr_proc_fork ( apr_proc_t proc,
apr_pool_t cont 
)

This is currently the only non-portable call in APR. This executes a standard unix fork.

Parameters:

)

Notify the maintenance callback of a registered other child process that application has detected an event, such as death.

Parameters:
proc The process to check
reason The reason code to pass to the maintenance function

Remarks:
An example of code using this behavior;
 rv = apr_proc_wait_all_procs(&proc, &exitcode, &status, APR_WAIT, p);
 if (APR_STATUS_IS_CHILD_DONE(rv)) {
 if APR_HAS_OTHER_CHILD
     if (apr_proc_other_child_alert(&proc, APR_OC_REASON_DEATH, status)
             == APR_SUCCESS) {
         ;  (already handled)
     }
     else
 endif

void apr_proc_other_child_check ( void   ) 

Deprecated:
See also:
apr_proc_other_child_refresh_all
Remarks:
Call apr_proc_other_child_refresh_all(APR_OC_REASON_RESTART) or apr_proc_other_child_refresh_all(APR_OC_REASON_RUNNING) instead.
Bug:
The differing implementations of this function on Win32 (_RUNNING checks) and Unix (used only for _RESTART) are the reason it will be dropped with APR 1.0.

apr_status_t apr_proc_other_child_read ( apr_proc_t proc,
int  status 
)

Deprecated:
See also:
apr_proc_other_child_alert
Bug:
This function's name had nothing to do with it's purpose

void apr_proc_other_child_refresh ( apr_other_child_rec_t ocr,
int  reason 
)

Test one specific other child processes and invoke the maintenance callback with the appropriate reason code, if still running, or the appropriate reason code if the process is no longer healthy.

Parameters:
ocr The registered other child
reason The reason code (e.g. APR_OC_REASON_RESTART) if still running

void apr_proc_other_child_refresh_all ( int  reason  ) 

Test all registered other child processes and invoke the maintenance callback with the appropriate reason code, if still running, or the appropriate reason code if the process is no longer healthy.

Parameters:
reason The reason code (e.g. APR_OC_REASON_RESTART) to running processes

void apr_proc_other_child_register ( apr_proc_t proc,
void(*)(int reason, void *, int status)  maintenance,
void *  data,
apr_file_t write_fd,
apr_pool_t p 
)

Register an other_child -- a child associated to its registered maintence callback. This callback is invoked when the process dies, is disconnected or disappears.

Parameters:
proc The child process to register.
maintenance maintenance is a function that is invoked with a reason and the data pointer passed here.
data Opaque context data passed to the maintenance function.
write_fd An fd that is probed for writing. If it is ever unwritable then the maintenance is invoked with reason OC_REASON_UNWRITABLE.
p The pool to use for allocating memory.
Bug:
write_fd duplicates the proc->out stream, it's really redundant and should be replaced in the APR 1.0 API with a bitflag of which proc->in/out/err handles should be health checked.

no platform currently tests the pipes health.

void apr_proc_other_child_unregister ( void *  data  ) 

Stop watching the specified other child.

Parameters:
data The data to pass to the maintenance function. This is used to find the process to unregister.
Warning:
Since this can be called by a maintenance function while we're scanning the other_children list, all scanners should protect themself by loading ocr->next before calling any maintenance function.

apr_status_t apr_proc_wait ( apr_proc_t proc,
int *  exitcode,
apr_exit_why_e exitwhy,
apr_wait_how_e  waithow 
)

Wait for a child process to die

Parameters:
proc The process handle that corresponds to the desired child process
exitcode The returned exit status of the child, if a child process dies, or the signal that caused the child to die. On platforms that don't support obtaining this information, the status parameter will be returned as APR_ENOTIMPL.
exitwhy Why the child died, the bitwise or of:
            APR_PROC_EXIT         -- process terminated normally
            APR_PROC_SIGNAL       -- process was killed by a signal
            APR_PROC_SIGNAL_CORE  -- process was killed by a signal, and
                                     generated a core dump.
 
waithow How should we wait. One of:
            APR_WAIT   -- block until the child process dies.
            APR_NOWAIT -- return immediately regardless of if the 
                          child is dead or not.
 
Remarks:
The childs status is in the return code to this process. It is one of:
            APR_CHILD_DONE     -- child is no longer running.
            APR_CHILD_NOTDONE  -- child is still running.
 

apr_status_t apr_proc_wait_all_procs ( apr_proc_t proc,
int *  exitcode,
apr_exit_why_e exitwhy,
apr_wait_how_e  waithow,
apr_pool_t p 
)

Wait for any current child process to die and return information about that child.

Parameters:
proc Pointer to NULL on entry, will be filled out with child's information
exitcode The returned exit status of the child, if a child process dies, or the signal that caused the child to die. On platforms that don't support obtaining this information, the status parameter will be returned as APR_ENOTIMPL.
exitwhy Why the child died, the bitwise or of:
            APR_PROC_EXIT         -- process terminated normally
            APR_PROC_SIGNAL       -- process was killed by a signal
            APR_PROC_SIGNAL_CORE  -- process was killed by a signal, and
                                     generated a core dump.
 
waithow How should we wait. One of:
            APR_WAIT   -- block until the child process dies.
            APR_NOWAIT -- return immediately regardless of if the 
                          child is dead or not.
 
p Pool to allocate child information out of.
Bug:
Passing proc as a *proc rather than **proc was an odd choice for some platforms... this should be revisited in 1.0

apr_status_t apr_procattr_addrspace_set ( apr_procattr_t attr,
apr_int32_t  addrspace 
)

Determine if the child should start in its own address space or using the current one from its parent

Parameters:
attr The procattr we care about.
addrspace Should the child start in its own address space? Default is no on NetWare and yes on other platforms.

apr_status_t apr_procattr_child_err_set ( struct apr_procattr_t attr,
apr_file_t child_err,
apr_file_t parent_err 
)

Set the child_err and parent_err values to existing apr_file_t values.

Parameters:
attr The procattr we care about.
child_err apr_file_t value to use as child_err. Must be a valid file.
parent_err apr_file_t value to use as parent_err. Must be a valid file.
Remarks:
This is NOT a required initializer function. This is useful if you have already opened a pipe (or multiple files) that you wish to use, perhaps persistently across multiple process invocations - such as a log file.

apr_status_t apr_procattr_child_errfn_set ( apr_procattr_t attr,
apr_child_errfn_t errfn 
)

Specify an error function to be called in the child process if APR encounters an error in the child prior to running the specified program.

Parameters:
attr The procattr describing the child process to be created.
errfn The function to call in the child process.
Remarks:
At the present time, it will only be called from apr_proc_create() on platforms where fork() is used. It will never be called on other platforms, on those platforms apr_proc_create() will return the error in the parent process rather than invoke the callback in the now-forked child process.

apr_status_t apr_procattr_child_in_set ( struct apr_procattr_t attr,
apr_file_t child_in,
apr_file_t parent_in 
)

Set the child_in and/or parent_in values to existing apr_file_t values.

Parameters:
attr The procattr we care about.
child_in apr_file_t value to use as child_in. Must be a valid file.
parent_in apr_file_t value to use as parent_in. Must be a valid file.
Remarks:
This is NOT a required initializer function. This is useful if you have already opened a pipe (or multiple files) that you wish to use, perhaps persistently across multiple process invocations - such as a log file. You can save some extra function calls by not creating your own pipe since this creates one in the process space for you.

apr_status_t apr_procattr_child_out_set ( struct apr_procattr_t attr,
apr_file_t child_out,
apr_file_t parent_out 
)

Set the child_out and parent_out values to existing apr_file_t values.

Parameters:
attr The procattr we care about.
child_out apr_file_t value to use as child_out. Must be a valid file.
parent_out apr_file_t value to use as parent_out. Must be a valid file.
Remarks:
This is NOT a required initializer function. This is useful if you have already opened a pipe (or multiple files) that you wish to use, perhaps persistently across multiple process invocations - such as a log file.

apr_status_t apr_procattr_cmdtype_set ( apr_procattr_t attr,
apr_cmdtype_e  cmd 
)

Set what type of command the child process will call.

Parameters:
attr The procattr we care about.
cmd The type of command. One of:
            APR_SHELLCMD     --  Anything that the shell can handle
            APR_PROGRAM      --  Executable program   (default) 
            APR_PROGRAM_ENV  --  Executable program, copy environment

apr_status_t apr_procattr_create ( apr_procattr_t **  new_attr,
apr_pool_t cont 
)

Create and initialize a new procattr variable

Parameters:
new_attr The newly created procattr.
cont The pool to use

apr_status_t apr_procattr_detach_set ( apr_procattr_t attr,
apr_int32_t  detach 
)

Determine if the child should start in detached state.

Parameters:
attr The procattr we care about.
detach Should the child start in detached state? Default is no.

apr_status_t apr_procattr_dir_set ( apr_procattr_t attr,
const char *  dir 
)

Set which directory the child process should start executing in.

Parameters:
attr The procattr we care about.
dir Which dir to start in. By default, this is the same dir as the parent currently resides in, when the createprocess call is made.

apr_status_t apr_procattr_error_check_set ( apr_procattr_t attr,
apr_int32_t  chk 
)

Specify that apr_proc_create() should do whatever it can to report failures to the caller of apr_proc_create(), rather than find out in the child.

Parameters:
attr The procattr describing the child process to be created.
chk Flag to indicate whether or not extra work should be done to try to report failures to the caller.
Remarks:
This flag only affects apr_proc_create() on platforms where fork() is used. This leads to extra overhead in the calling process, but that may help the application handle such errors more gracefully.

apr_status_t apr_procattr_io_set ( apr_procattr_t attr,
apr_int32_t  in,
apr_int32_t  out,
apr_int32_t  err 
)

apr_int32_t  what,
struct rlimit *  limit 
)

Set the Resource Utilization limits when starting a new process.

Parameters:
attr The procattr we care about.

Warning:
This must be called before any threads are created

apr_status_t apr_signal_thread ( int(*)(int signum)  signal_handler  ) 

Make the current thread listen for signals. This thread will loop forever, calling a provided function whenever it receives a signal. That functions should return 1 if the signal has been handled, 0 otherwise.
