Description: libdaemon is a lightweight C library that eases the writing of UNIX daemons.
|
||
|
|
It consists of the following parts:
|
||
|
|
- A wrapper around fork() which does the correct daemonization procedure of a process
|
||
|
|
- A wrapper around syslog() for simpler and compatible log output to Syslog or STDERR
|
||
|
|
- An API for writing PID files
|
||
|
|
- An API for serializing UNIX signals into a pipe for usage with select() or poll()
|
||
|
|
- An API for running subprocesses with STDOUT and STDERR redirected to syslog
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
APIs like these are used in most daemon software available. It is not that
|
||
|
|
simple to get it done right and code duplication is not a goal.
