54 | "Libdaemon is a lightweight C library that eases the writing of UNIX |
55 | daemons. It consists of the following parts: | |

56 | |
57 | • A wrapper around fork() which does the correct daemonization procedure of | |
58 | a process | |
59 | ||
60 | • A wrapper around syslog() for simpler and compatible log output to Syslog | |
61 | or STDERR | |
62 | ||
63 | • An API for writing PID files | |
64 | ||
65 | • An API for serializing UNIX signals into a pipe for usage with select() or | |
66 | poll() | |
67 | ||
68 | • An API for running subprocesses with STDOUT and STDERR redirected to | |
69 | syslog. | |
70 | ||
35b9e423 | 71 | APIs like these are used in most daemon software available. It is not that |
4cdbdd44 LC |
72 | simple to get it done right and code duplication is not a goal.") |
