Handling Interrupt Signals: C and C++ example use different approach

The C and C++ example in the section Handling Interrupt Signals use a different approaches on how to shut down the application. The deviation is more than just writing the same algorithm in a different programming languages.

The C++ example sets the global variable s_interrupted as described in the text, while the C example uses a pipe instead.

To avoid confusion I think the examples should stick to the same method across all programming languages - as far as it make sense for the given programming language.

I agree. If you got time feel free to send a PR. Franz Hollerer <[email protected]> schrieb am Do., 19. März 2020, 14:02:
