NAME
     posix_spawnattr_init posix_spawnattr_destroy -- initialize or destroy a spawn attributes object

SYNOPSIS
     #include <spawn.h>

     int
     posix_spawnattr_init(posix_spawnattr_t *attr);

     int
     posix_spawnattr_destroy(posix_spawnattr_t *attr);

DESCRIPTION
     The posix_spawnattr_init() function initializes the object referenced by attr, to an empty set of spawn attributes for subsequent use in a
     call to posix_spawn(2) or posix_spawnp(2).

     A posix_spawnattr_t object is an opaque type that is used to collect set of spawn attributes specified by calls to
     posix_spawnattr_setflags(3), posix_spawnattr_setpgroup(3), posix_spawnattr_setsigdefault(3), posix_spawnattr_setsigmask(3),
     posix_spawnattr_setbinpref_np(3), posix_spawnattr_setspecialport_np(3), or posix_spawnattr_setexceptionports_np(3) such that once the spawn
     operation is complete, the child process will have a different set of attributes than the parent.	The order of these operations is unspeci-
     fied and may change; programs should not depend on their ordering.

     The posix_spawnattr_destroy() function destroys the object referenced by attr which was previously intialized by posix_spawnattr_init(),
     returning any resources obtained at the time of initialization to the system for subsequent reuse.  A posix_spawnattr_t may be reinitialized
     after having been destroyed, but must not be reused after destruction, unless it has been reinitialized.

RETURN VALUES
     On success, these functions return 0; on failure they return an error number from <errno.h>.

ERRORS
     The posix_spawnattr_init() and posix_spawnattr_destroy() functions will fail and return an error if:

     [ENOMEM]		Insufficient resources to initialize the posix_spawnattr_t object.

     [EINVAL]		The posix_spawnattr_t being destroyed is invalid.
