Subject: [9fans] exiting nicely
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2009 09:46:33 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9d12d327612343c13bd110253c2632c6@9grid.es> (raw)

hello

I have a couple of processes working together sharing memory and using locks, and when the program finish the job and exits, the proceses in Rendez state  does not exit, and i need to slay them.

I'm using postnote(PNGROUP,...) call, should i write a postctl to slay the waiting proceses or is there a better way to accomplish this? (may be using canlock and wait for it with a loop and sleep instead of a qlock?)

thanks

gabi
