note 82560 added to function.posix-kill

If you want to test whether processes owned by other users are running, you can use: <?php $running=posix_kill($pid, 0); if(posix_get_last_error()==1) /* EPERM */ $running=true; ?> If the process is owned by somebody else (and you're not root), you will get an EPERM. On my system (FreeBSD) this is defined to 1. You should test what the value of EPERM is on your system. ---- Server IP: 89.248.170.61 Probable Submitter: 82.174.113.83 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.posix-kill.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/82560 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82560/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82560/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82560/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82560/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82560/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82560/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82560 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/82560 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
