Juli 1988" "J\*org Schilling" "Schily\'s LIBRARY FUNCTIONS" .SH NAME spawnv() \- calls a command with specified arguments .SH SYNOPSIS .nf .B int spawnv(Sin,Sout,Serr,ArgC,ArgV) .B FILE *Sin, *Sout, *Serr; .B int ArgC; .B char *ArgV[]; .fi .SH DESCRIPTION spawnv() causes the command, named in ArgV[0], to be called with the given arguments. Functionally this subroutine is the same as spawnl(), differing only in the form of the argument. .SH RETURNS Returns 0 when successful. Otherwise, returns a non-zero value which could be: .PP an error code from fork() or fexecl(). the argument to exit() in the Command_name. .TP .B 1, if stopped by a control C (^C). .TP .B 2, if killed by another process. .TP .B 4, if suspended by any fault, raise, control Y ^Y or by another process. (In this case, spawnv() kills the suspended process.) .SH NOTES none
