-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 According to Bruno Haible on 6/6/2008 5:53 PM: | | Regarding _setjmp and _longjmp you say that they are "obsolete". I disagree | for two reasons:
I was going off of the POSIX 200x draft copy, where they were given OB shading (ie. a future version of POSIX may withdraw support for them). I have no disagreements that _setjmp is still the only documented way to save context without wasting time on signal masks, nor that it is likely faster than sigsetjmp(,0). Rather, the question (which you should probably take up with the Austin group) is whether bypassing the signal mask is safe enough to keep without obsoletion, and in which use cases. It is certainly NOT safe for use in signal handlers. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
