We have two processes which are communicating via signals (SIGUSR1), these processes routinely block and unblock signals by using sigprocmask with SIG_BLOCK and SIG_UNBLOCK. After running for various lengths of time we see our signal handler called while the signal was supposedly blocked. Currently, we are running on a multi-processor (4 Xeon Processors) under Windows2000. The problem seems to happen more frequently if you run more than one copy of the test concurrently. We're currently running our test on a single processor WindowsNT 4.0 system, and have yet to see the problem. Has anybody seen anything similiar to this. Thanks, --Craig _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
