libdaemon-dev | lightweight C library for daemons - development files | Mehr ...
libdaemon is a leightweight C library which eases the writing of UNIX daemons. It consists of the following parts: . * Wrapper around fork() for correct daemonization of a process * Wrapper around syslog() for simple log output to syslog or STDERR * An API for writing PID files * An API for serializing signals into a pipe for use with select() or poll() * An API for running subprocesses with STDOUT and STDERR redirected to syslog . Routines like these are included in most of the daemon software available. It is not simple to get these done right and code duplication is not acceptable. . This package includes the header files and the static version of the library and documentation.
