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.
