Re: Signal handling problem in 1.5.7 ? - Was: Re: Program randomly hangs.....


Hi!

Sometime ago there were problems with signal handling and threads
in cygwin. The main issue was that signal handling was not occurring
properly when threads were running and when a signal was fired the
signal handler would not relinquish control properly back to whatever
was control the threads in this case cygwins thread pool. As far
as I know the snapshot from the 31st of Jan 04 has resolved those
issue. As for "processes" thats another issue altogether.

Thanks for the info, I'll try it after the current try to reproduce the problem.
