1459 | some child status changes (most typically when a child of yours dies). It |
|
|
1460 | is permissible to install a child watcher I<after> the child has been |
|
|
1461 | forked (which implies it might have already exited), as long as the event |

|
1462 | loop isn't entered (or is continued from a watcher). |
|
|

|
1467 | =head3 Process Interaction |
|
|
1468 | |
|
|
1469 | Libev grabs C<SIGCHLD> as soon as the default event loop is |
|
|
1470 | initialised. This is necessary to guarantee proper behaviour even if |
|
|
1471 | the first child watcher is started after the child exits. The occurance |
|
|
1472 | of C<SIGCHLD> is recorded asynchronously, but child reaping is done |
|
|
1473 | synchronously as part of the event loop processing. Libev always reaps all |
|
|
1474 | children, even ones not watched. |
|
|
1475 | |
|
|
1476 | =head3 Overriding the Built-In Processing |
|
|
1477 | |
|
|
1478 | Libev offers no special support for overriding the built-in child |
|
|
1479 | processing, but if your application collides with libev's default child |
|
|
1480 | handler, you can override it easily by installing your own handler for |
|
|
1481 | C<SIGCHLD> after initialising the default loop, and making sure the |
|
|
1482 | default loop never gets destroyed. You are encouraged, however, to use an |
|
|
1483 | event-based approach to child reaping and thus use libev's support for |
|
|
1484 | that, so other libev users can use C<ev_child> watchers freely. |
