SYNOPSIS

       #include <process.hh>

       Inherits shevek::refbase.

   Public Member Functions
       Glib::RefPtr< shevek::fd > in ()
           The standard input pipe, if it was requested.
       Glib::RefPtr< shevek::fd > out ()
           The standard output pipe, if it was requested.
       Glib::RefPtr< shevek::fd > err ()
           The standard error pipe, if it was requested.
       pid_t pid ()
           The process ID.
       ~process ()
           The destructor. This kills the process if it was still running.

       program.

Member Function Documentation

   static std::string shevek::process::run (std::string const & command, std::string const & sh)
       [static]
       Run a process and return its output. A convenience function for running a process and
       catching its standard output in a string. This blocks until the process has exited.

   static Glib::RefPtr<process> shevek::process::shell (std::string const & command, bool
       pipe_stdin = true, bool pipe_stdout = true, bool pipe_stderr = true, std::string const &
       sh = '/bin/sh') [inline],  [static]
       Run a string with the shell. Note that the process is forked from the shell, and so does
       not get killed when the process goes away.
