#include "mut.h"
void mbksetautoackchld( pid )
int pid;
PARAMETER
pid Process pid to automatically handle.
DESCRIPTION
mbksetautoackchld provide a centralised way to catch terminated child process. Because some Alliance library can create a child process,
and user application can do so, there must be a centralized way to get the exit status of process. If the programmer don't want to know the
state of a child process, or if he don't want to know what is the terminaison code of such process, he must tells it to Alliance with this
call. The programmer should never modify the handler of SIGCHLD.
RETURN VALUE
mbksetautoackchld don't return value.
