Hey, I have two more questions. I was trying sigaction before fork(), but I see some unexpected results!
1. I trigger SIGINT signal only once using kill function. I expect this to trigger respective signal handler and do the operation. But even if I am sending SIGINT only once, I am getting "Signal processed OKay" printed twice! Shouldn't this be printed only once as I am sending SIGINT only once?
Output :
Source code :
2. Secondly, I am facing some problems when I try to send 2 SIGINT signals one after the other continuously from child process! i.e, when another kill() function is used after the first one in above code. The result I expected was two "SIGINT signal caught!!" messages. But I am getting only one instead.
In general, if I am sending signals of same kind continuously of same kind from child to parent, anything in particular I need to do?
