NAME [Toc] [Back]
tt_message_send_on_exit - set up a message to send upon unexpected
exit
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
#include <Tt/tt_c.h>
Tt_status tt_message_send_on_exit(
Tt_message m);
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The tt_message_send_on_exit function requests that the ToolTalk
service send this message if the process exits unexpectedly. The
message is sent to the ToolTalk service, which queues the message
internally until either of two events occur:
1. The procid that sent the tt_message_send_on_exit message to the
ToolTalk service calls tt_close(3). In this case, the queued
message is deleted.
2. The connection between the ttsession(1) server and the process
that sent the tt_message_send_on_exit message to the ToolTalk
service is broken; for example, if the application has crashed.
In this case, the ToolTalk service matches the queued message to its
patterns and delivers it in the same manner as if the process had sent
the message normally before exiting.
If a process sends a normal termination message but exits without
calling tt_close(3), both the normal termination message and the
on_exit message are delivered.
The m argument is the opaque handle for the message involved in this
operation.
