Synopsis

#include <spawn.h>

Description

The <spawn.h> header defines the posix_spawnattr_t and posix_spawn_file_actions_t types used in performing spawn operations.

The <spawn.h> header defines the flags that can be set in a posix_spawnattr_t object using the posix_spawnattr_setflags() function:

POSIX_SPAWN_RESETIDS
POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP
POSIX_SPAWN_SETSCHEDPARAM
POSIX_SPAWN_SETSCHEDULER
POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGDEF
POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGMASK

Inclusion of the <spawn.h> header can make visible symbols defined in the <sched.h>, <signal.h>, and <sys/types.h> headers.
