tcsetpgrp - set the foreground process group ID SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h> int tcsetpgrp(int fildes, pid_t pgid_id); DESCRIPTION
If the process has a controlling terminal, tcsetpgrp() shall set the foreground process group ID associated with the terminal to pgid_id. The application shall ensure that the file associated with fildes is the controlling terminal of the calling process and the controlling terminal is currently associated with the session of the calling process. The application shall ensure that the value of pgid_id matches a process group ID of a process in the same session as the calling process. Attempts to use tcsetpgrp() from a process which is a member of a background process group on a fildes associated with its controlling ter- minal shall cause the process group to be sent a SIGTTOU signal. If the calling process is blocking or ignoring SIGTTOU signals, the process shall be allowed to perform the operation, and no signal is sent. RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, 0 shall be returned. Otherwise, -1 shall be returned and errno set to indicate the error. ERRORS
The tcsetpgrp() function shall fail if: EBADF The fildes argument is not a valid file descriptor. EINVAL This implementation does not support the value in the pgid_id argument. ENOTTY The calling process does not have a controlling terminal, or the file is not the controlling terminal, or the controlling terminal is no longer associated with the session of the calling process. EPERM The value of pgid_id is a value supported by the implementation, but does not match the process group ID of a process in the same session as the calling process. The following sections are informative. EXAMPLES
None. APPLICATION USAGE
None. RATIONALE
None. FUTURE DIRECTIONS
