- P1003.4a/D6 9.3.4 214-217 states:
-
- Any handlers that are to clean up inter-process state would be
- registered with atexit(). There is the orthogonal problem that
- the exec functions do not honor the atexitd() handlers, but
- fixing this is beyond the scope of this chapter.
-
- First, may I assume that "atexitd()" is a typo and should read
- "atexit()"?
-
- Secondly, what is the status of this "orthogonal problem"? As I
- understand it, the use of the exec functions cause any prior
- registration of atexit() functions to be discarded and the exec
- functions themselves to not cause the currently registered atexit()
- functions to be executed.
