You're after posix_spawn(2) :D
- modshatereality 5y agoI don't think i've ever seen posix_spawn(3) in a serious project. Maybe on a small embedded system lacking MMU support?
- ncmncm 5y agoOn Linux machines it is probably implemented with vfork + exec. But the GP joke is (I guess) in suggesting by the "(2)" that it should be a system call, and not a library function that composes system calls.
