Chris S.,
Why do you not want it to be a child? The reason I ask is that if
your
requirement is that the spawned process isn't terminated when the
parent
dies, then NSTask will suffice. Whilst processes it spawns are
children,
they're in a different process group and session and so don't die
when the
parent dies.
Is there anything special I need to specify or any particular
terminology for this that I should look for in the doc to get this
behavior (running in a different process group)? Thanks!
I don't think the docs. cover this issue. There's no way of
controlling the behaviour if that's what you're asking. I think there
was a recent post from someone who wanted the opposite behaviour, for
a process spawned by NSTask to be terminated when the parent dies,
which unfortunately isn't possible.
