## Member Function Documentation

void KProcessController::theSigCHLDHandler | ( | int | signal | ) | `[static]`

| Automatically called upon SIGCHLD. Normally you do not need to do anything with this function but if your application needs to disable SIGCHLD for some time for reasons beyond your control, you should call this function afterwards to make sure that no SIGCHLDs where missed. Definition at line 146 of file kprocctrl.cpp. References QValueList< KProcess * >::begin(), QValueList< KProcess * >::end(), fd, processList, and theKProcessController.

bool KProcessController::waitForProcessExit | ( | int | timeout | ) |

  | Wait for any process to exit and handle their exit without starting an event loop. This function may cause KProcess to emit any of its signals. Parameters:
  timeout | the timeout in seconds
Returns: true if a process exited, false if no process exited within `timeout` seconds. Since: 3.1 Definition at line 276 of file kprocctrl.cpp. References QTimer::isActive(), and QTimer::stop().
