Re: [slang-users] need to send signals two times

["John E. Davis" <davis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here is version of your script that uses open/close:

  # slsh /tmp/foo.sl
  before open -- press ^C
  got signal 2
  caught SignalError
  removing fifo

% foo.sl
variable quit = 0;
new_exception ("SignalError", RunTimeError, "Signal Error");

define sig_handler(sig)
{
   quit++;
   message("got signal $sig"$);
   throw SignalError;
}

define slsh_main ()
{
   signal(SIGHUP, &sig_handler);
   signal(SIGINT, &sig_handler);
   signal(SIGQUIT, &sig_handler);

   variable fifo_name = "/tmp/jed.latex." + string(getpid());
   if (mkfifo(fifo_name, 0600) != 0)
     throw ApplicationError, "Could not create FIFO";

   try
     {
	message("before open -- press ^C");
	variable fifo = open(fifo_name, O_RDONLY);
	message("after open");
	if (quit)
	  {
	     message ("quit=$quit, fifo=$fifo"$);
	     if (fifo != NULL)
	       ()=close(fifo);
	     break;
	  }
     }
   catch SignalError: message ("caught SignalError");
   finally
     {
	message ("removing fifo");
	() = remove(fifo_name);
     }
}
