Field Documentation

char* const* le_proc_Parameters_t::argumentsPtr

NULL-terminated array of arguments to pass to the process. May be NULL.

int le_proc_Parameters_t::closeFds

Close all open file descriptors in the child at or above the given value. Set to LE_PROC_NO_FDS to avoid closing any.

bool le_proc_Parameters_t::detach

"Detach" the process so that a call to le_proc_Wait() is not required to prevent it from becoming a zombie.

char* const* le_proc_Parameters_t::environmentPtr

NULL-terminated array of "var=value" strings to set in the environment of the process. May be NULL.

void(* le_proc_Parameters_t::init) (const struct le_proc_Parameters *paramPtr)

Custom function to run right before the executable is exec'd. Note that only async-signal-safe functions may be called from this callback.

void* le_proc_Parameters_t::userPtr

Arbitrary data to include with the parameters. Only useful if init() is also set.
