Hi,
I am experiencing some problems with the wordexp function.
I am working on a program whose purpose is to launch program on file patterns.
To evaluate the list of files, I use the wordexp function,
and to know when launched programs are over, I have attached a function
("childcatcher") to SIGCHLD signal.
The problem is that SIGCHLD catching interfere with wordexp, which then throw
an WRDE_ERRNO error.
(I have discovered this as there was the same bug on AIX :
https://www-304.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg1IY65413 , which has been
corrected.)
So I have I tried to disable the SIGCHLD catching during the wordexp execution,
but of course under heavy load, I have signals uncaught and then my program
wait for them forever.
I'm looking for some ways to work around this,
thanks in advance,
Frédéric Heulin.
