Hello,
I'd like to connect the timer signal SIGALRM to a signal handler
signal (SIGALRM, timer_signal_handler);
and start the timer
itimerval t;
t.it_value.tv_sec=1;
t.it_value.tv_usec=0;
setitimer (ITIMER_REAL, &t, NULL);
All this works fine if I start the timer before I call gtk_main () and
the timer_signal_handler function gets called as usual. But if I setup
the timer after gtk_main (), the program stops after the adjusted time
with the message "Alarm clock".
Now, I really would like to avoid this message and the stopping of my
program, as well. I need to react myself within timer_signal_handler.
I'm sure, there exists a solution ;) Have anyone a good idea?
Thanks a lot.
