POSIX_SPAWNATTR_INIT(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual
NAME
posix_spawnattr_init, posix_spawnattr_destroy - create and destroy
posix_spawn attributes object
SYNOPSIS
#include <spawn.h>
int
posix_spawnattr_init(posix_spawnattr_t *attr);
int
posix_spawnattr_destroy(posix_spawnattr_t *attr);
DESCRIPTION
posix_spawn(3) attributes objects can be initialized by
posix_spawnattr_init() and destroyed by posix_spawnattr_destroy().
Initialization fills an attributes object pointed by attr with the
default values for all the attributes.
Multiple initialization of the same object is undefined behavior and will
lead to memory leaks.
Similarly, objects should be passed to posix_spawnattr_destroy() to
reclaim memory. The object should not be re-used after destruction. It
can however be initialized again with posix_spawnattr_init().
An attributes object, possibly modified by posix_spawn_set*(), is used to
specify what process attributes will be passed across a spawn operation
as implemented by posix_spawn() or posix_spawnp().
Attribute details are described in posix_spawnattr_setflags(3).
Modifying or destroying attributes object will not affect processes that
have already been spawned.
RETURN VALUES
These function return 0 on successful completion. They may return ENOMEM
when running out of memory.
