Terminate running process [message #551388]

Hello,

I use CDT for C development, and run into the following:
To gracefully stop an application, I use a signal handler to intercept SIGINT. Running the application from a command line works as expected. When ctrl-c is used to stop it, the signal handler is invoked.

But when I run the same application from Eclipse, how can I send the SIGINT? The terminate button apparently sends a SIGKILL (which cannot be intercepted). How can I change this behaviour?

TiA,

Alexander

The eclipse suspend button may do what you want.
If not, then you can always sent a kill -2 to the process from the command line.

hm.
thx your answer.
but i still wonder how can i intercept terminate signal by using PDE programing?
i just want to make a PDE-Program which do somthing instead of terminating programe.

in short, when i click "terminate button" which is located upper-side of console view,
the PDE-Program do some work that i want to do .
