Named semaphores


  • Subject: Named semaphores
  • From: Mark Stultz <email@hidden>

If an application creates a named semaphore, and that application crashes,
will the instance/count of that semaphore going away or decrement?  Two
applications depend on a specific semaphore, and therefore one cannot
"sem_unlink" without the other having bad effects.  I would like to just
sem_close them, but it seems that if an application crashes, the instance of
that semaphore does not go with it.

Any ideas?
