Sending data to pipe in signal handler ???

Hi there,

What is the correct way to terminate a UNIX process listening to an ORACLE pipe in a while loop ?

We tried to install a signal handler which sends a special message to the while loop to terminate the process, but doing so causes the progam to hang up.

Is it OK just to kill the process without any synchronization for the ORACLE pipe ?

Any input is greatly appreciated.

So long,
Wolfgang. Received on Wed Jul 29 1998 - 06:38:07 CDT
