TITLE:=A lightweight C library that eases the writing of UNIX daemons
- DESCRIPTION:=\
- libdaemon is a lightweight C library that eases the writing of UNIX daemons.\\\
- It consists of the following parts:\\\
- - A wrapper around fork() which does the correct daemonization procedure of a process\\\
- - A wrapper around syslog() for simpler and compatible log output to Syslog or STDERR\\\
- - An API for writing PID files\\\
- - An API for serializing UNIX signals into a pipe for usage with select() or poll()\\\
- - An API for running subprocesses with STDOUT and STDERR redirected to syslog\\\
- \\\
- APIs like these are used in most daemon software available. It is not that \\\
- simple to get it done right and code duplication is not a goal.
