namespace Poco {
class Pipe;
class Foundation_API ProcessHandle
A handle for a process created with Process::launch().
This handle can be used to determine the process ID of
the newly created process and it can be used to wait for
the completion of a process.
{
public:
typedef ProcessImpl::PIDImpl PID;
ProcessHandle(const ProcessHandle& handle);
Creates a ProcessHandle by copying another one.
~ProcessHandle();
Destroys the ProcessHandle.
ProcessHandle& operator = (const ProcessHandle& handle);
Assigns another handle.
PID id() const;
Returns the process ID.
int wait() const;
Waits for the process to terminate
and returns the exit code of the process.
protected:
ProcessHandle(ProcessHandleImpl* pImpl);
private:
ProcessHandle();
ProcessHandleImpl* _pImpl;
friend class Process;
};
class Foundation_API Process: public ProcessImpl
This class provides methods for working with processes.
{
public:
typedef PIDImpl PID;
typedef ArgsImpl Args;
static PID id();
Returns the process ID of the current process.
static void times(long& userTime, long& kernelTime);
Returns the number of seconds spent by the
current process in user and kernel mode.
static ProcessHandle launch(const std::string& command, const Args& args);
Creates a new process for the given command and returns
a ProcessHandle of the new process. The given arguments are
passed to the command on the command line.
static ProcessHandle launch(const std::string& command, const Args& args, Pipe* inPipe, Pipe* outPipe, Pipe* errPipe);
Creates a new process for the given command and returns
a ProcessHandle of the new process. The given arguments are
passed to the command on the command line.
If inPipe, outPipe or errPipe is non-null, the corresponding
standard input, standard output or standard error stream
of the launched process is redirected to the Pipe.
PipeInputStream or PipeOutputStream can be used to
send receive data from, or send data to the process.
Note: the same Pipe can be used for both outPipe and errPipe.
After a Pipe has been passed as inPipe, only write operations
are valid. After a Pipe has been passed as outPipe or errPipe,
only read operations are valid.
It is forbidden to pass the same pipe as inPipe and outPipe or errPipe.
Usage example:
Pipe outPipe;
Process::Args args;
ProcessHandle ph(launch("/bin/ps", args, &outPipe, 0, 0));
PipeInputStream istr(outPipe);
... // read output of ps from istr
int rc = ph.wait();
static int wait(const ProcessHandle& handle);
Waits for the process specified by handle to terminate
and returns the exit code of the process.
static void kill(PID pid);
Kills the process with the given pid.
static void requestTermination(PID pid);
Requests termination of the process with the give PID.
On Unix platforms, this will send a SIGINT to the
process and thus work with arbitrary processes.
On other platforms, a global event flag
will be set. Setting the flag will cause
Util::ServerApplication::waitForTerminationRequest() to
return. Therefore this will only work with applications
based on Util::ServerApplication.
