DESCRIPTION
These functions handle fork and exec operations. See files: nsd/exec.c, nsd/tclenv.c and nsthread/fork.c.
Ns_ExecArgblk(exec, dir, fdin, fdout, args, env)
Executes a command in a child process. Return process id of child process exec'ing the command or -1 on failure. Provides extended
error checking and error messages.
Ns_ExecArgv(exec, dir, fdin, fdout, argv, env)
Execute a command in a child process using fork(2) and execve(2), returns the process id of child process exec'ing the command or -1
on failure. The child sends an extended error message to the parent.
Ns_ExecProc(exec, argv)
Executes a command in a child process. Returns the process id of the child process exec'ing the command or -1 on failure. Simpli-
fies call to Ns_ExecArgv.
Ns_ExecProcess(exec, dir, fdin, fdout, args, env)
Executes a command in a child process. Returns the process id of the child process exec'ing the command or -1 on failure. Calls
Ns_ExecArgblk with same arguments.
Ns_Fork()
Posix style fork(), using fork1() on Solaris if needed. See fork(2) man page. Calls ns_fork.
Ns_GetEnviron()
Returns pointer to the environment vector.
Ns_WaitForProcess(pid, statusPtr)
Wait for child process. Returns NS_OK on success, or NS_ERROR on failure. *statusPtr is set to the exit code of the child process.
Ns_WaitProcess(pid)
Wait for child process. Calls Ns_WaitForProcess with NULL statusPtr. Returns NS_OK on success, or NS_ERROR on failure.
ns_fork()
Posix style fork(), using fork1() on Solaris if needed.
