POSIX_SPAWNATTR_GETPGROUP(3)                          Library Functions Manual

NAME
     posix_spawnattr_getpgroup, posix_spawnattr_setpgroup - get and set the
     spawn-pgroup attribute of a spawn attributes object

LIBRARY
     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <spawn.h>

     int
     posix_spawnattr_getpgroup(const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attr,
         pid_t *restrict pgroup);

     int
     posix_spawnattr_setpgroup(posix_spawnattr_t *attr, pid_t pgroup);

DESCRIPTION
     The posix_spawnattr_getpgroup() function obtains the value of the spawn-
     pgroup attribute from the attributes object referenced by attr.

     The posix_spawnattr_setpgroup() function sets the spawn-pgroup attribute
     in an initialized attributes object referenced by attr.

     The spawn-pgroup attribute represents the process group to be joined by
     the new process image in a spawn operation (if POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP is
     set in the spawn-flags attribute).  The default value of this attribute
     is zero.

RETURN VALUES
     The posix_spawnattr_getpgroup() and posix_spawnattr_setpgroup() functions
     return zero.

SEE ALSO
     posix_spawn(3), posix_spawnattr_destroy(3), posix_spawnattr_init(3),
     posix_spawnp(3)

STANDARDS
     The posix_spawnattr_getpgroup() and posix_spawnattr_setpgroup() functions
     conform to IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 ("POSIX.1").

HISTORY
     The posix_spawnattr_getpgroup() and posix_spawnattr_setpgroup() functions
     first appeared in FreeBSD 8.0 and imported for NetBSD 6.0.
