signal handling while in a function other than main

Hi, I have a main loop which calls a sub loop, which finally returns to the main loop itself. The main loop runs when a flag is set. Now, I have a signal handler for SIGINT, which resets the flag and thus stops the main loop. Suppose I send SIGINT while the program is in subloop, I get an error...

Function main returning int?

H friends, As we know, a function returns a value and that value is saved somwhere. like int Sum( int x, int y ) { return x + y; } Total = Sum( 10, 20 ); The value 30 is saved in variable Total. Now the question is, what int value does the function main return, and where is it...

pvmfstartpvmd

START_PVMD(3PVM)						  PVM Version 3.4						  START_PVMD(3PVM)

NAME

       pvm_start_pvmd - Starts new PVM daemon.

SYNOPSIS

       C    int info = pvm_start_pvmd( int argc, char **argv, int block )

       Fortran	 call pvmfstartpvmd( args, block, info )

PARAMETERS

       argc    Number of arguments in argv.

       argv    An array of arguments to the executable.

       args    A character string containing the arguments to the executable.

       args    A character string containing the arguments to the executable.

       block   Integer specifying whether to block until startup of all hosts complete or return immediately.

       info    Integer returning the error code.

DESCRIPTION

       The  routine  pvm_start_pvmd starts up a pvmd3 process, the master of a new virtual machine.  It returns as soon as the pvmd is started and
       ready for work.	If the block parameter is nonzero and a hostfile is passed to the pvmd as a parameter, it returns when all hosts marked to
       start have been added.  pvm_start_pvmd returns zero on success.

       If  PVM is compiled to allow running more than one pvmd per host, a task calling pvm_start_pvmd before any other pvm functions will connect
       to the pvmd that it starts.  pvm_start_pvmd sets environment variable PVMSOCK to the address printed by the pvmd as it starts up.

EXAMPLES

       C:
	    static char *argv[] = {
		"-d41",
		"/u/jones/pvmd_hosts",
	    };
	    argc = 2
	    info = pvm_start_pvmd( argc, argv, block );

       Fortran:
	    CALL PVMFSTART_PVMD( '-d41 /u/jones/pvmd_hosts', BLOCK, INFO )

EXAMPLES

       C:
	    static char *argv[] = {
		"-d41",
		"/u/jones/pvmd_hosts",
	    };
	    argc = 2
	    info = pvm_start_pvmd( argc, argv, block );

       Fortran:
	    CALL PVMFSTART_PVMD( '-d41 /u/jones/pvmd_hosts', BLOCK, INFO )

ERRORS

       The following error conditions can be returned

       PvmDupHost
	      A pvmd is already running.

       PvmSysErr
	      The local pvmd is not responding.
