NAME

       shevek::process -

       Inherits shevek::refbase.

   Public Member Functions
       Glib::RefPtr< shevek::fd > in ()
	   The standard input pipe, if it was requested.
       Glib::RefPtr< shevek::fd > out ()
	   The standard output pipe, if it was requested.
       Glib::RefPtr< shevek::fd > err ()
	   The standard error pipe, if it was requested.
       pid_t pid ()
	   The process ID.
       ~process ()
	   The destructor. This kills the process if it was still running.

Member Function Documentation
   static std::string shevek::process::run (std::string const &command, std::string const &sh) [static]
       Run a process and return its output. A convenience function for running a process and catching its standard output in a string. This blocks
       until the process has exited.

   static Glib::RefPtr<process> shevek::process::shell (std::string const &command, boolpipe_stdin = true, boolpipe_stdout = true, boolpipe_stderr
       = true, std::string const &sh = '/bin/sh') [inline, static]
       Run a string with the shell. Note that the process is forked from the shell, and so does not get killed when the process goes away.
