c++ - execlp hanging after execution -

-

i'm calling external binary (webots simulator) in cpp program, calling fork() , execlp(), takes on argument path of specific file. there no issues when path file valid , file exists, however, when point invalid file, expected could not open file: 'file.wbt' but child process not exit. though might due webot's internal code , how handles such errors, however, if call webots file.wbt on system's bash shell same error gets thrown but process ends should.

a compilable section of program:

#include <iostream> #include <fstream> #include <stdio.h>  #include <sys/types.h> #include <signal.h>  int start_webots(const char* world){     //starting webots child process known pid     int pid = fork();     if (pid == 0){         printf("starting webots...");         execlp("/usr/bin/webots","webots",world,null);         printf("finished executing webots");         exit(1);     }     else printf("webots pid: %i\n", pid);     return pid; }  int main(int argc, char const *argv[]){     int pid=start_webots("/home/joao/work/asbg/code/cpp/darwin/worlds/darwin_cpgs_noise.webt");      if (kill(pid,0)) printf("no process running\n");     return 0; }

the code lines after execlp naturally never executed long binary exists (webots installed), since webots replaces child process. however, after error could not open (...) don't ouput stdout, program hangs, , processs webots running in background.

what doing wrong/how can find workaround or solution?

i wish write custom appender on basis of outputstreamappender . wrote following class package tests; import java.io.ioexception; import java.io.outputstream; import ch.qos.logback.core.outputstreamappender; public class myappender<e> extends outputstreamappender<e> { public myappender() { system.out.println("myappender created"); setoutputstream(new outputstream() { @override public void write(int b) throws ioexception { throw new unsupportedoperationexception(); } }); } } then wrote following runner: package tests; import org.slf4j.loggerfactory; import ch.qos.logback.classic.logger; public class runner { private static final logger log = (logger) loggerfactory.getlogger(runner.class); public static void main(string[] args) { //log.addappender(new myappender<iloggingevent>()); log.info("hello world"); } } finall...

java - UML - How would you draw a try catch in a sequence diagram? -

is there standard way of drawing try catch sequence diagrams? i've made attempt based on this feel end result doesn't feel right. code diagram based around: public static void save () { try { filehandle filehandle = gdx.files.external(file); filehandle.writestring(boolean.tostring(constantshandler.soundenabled)+"\n", false); (int = 0; < 5; i++) { filehandle.writestring(integer.tostring(constantshandler.highscores[i])+"\n", true); } } catch (throwable e) { } } my attempt note: know still need add loop. that's ok. fragments meant show conditional control flow in sequence diagram. superstructures puts limitations on use of fragments (see pp. 467 of ss2.1.1). should use critical region try part above. , option catch . however, keep telling can take quite freedom in using uml. it's language , such changes in life time. long reader ge...
