Hello,
I have a problem runing the following program "test.c"
------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
main()
{
int p;
if((p = getppid()) == 1)
printf("My parent is bad, ppid=%d\n", p);
else
printf("My parent is good, ppid=%d\n", p);
exit(0);
}
--------
I build the program with the command
gcc -g -o test test.c
The problem is the following. When I execute the program in the command
line
./test
I get the output: "My parent is good", but if I execute the same program
under gdb
gdb ./test
(gdb) run
The output is "My parent is bad". I believe this is a bug in Cygwin's
implementation of getppid().
Could someone please confirm this. Hopefully it is easy to fix.
Thank you.
