Question

According to the openRTSP page you must "terminate it cleanly, by signalling it with SIGHUP or SIGUSR1". Those don't exist in Windows so is there a method already coded openRTSP for windows I can instigate, or is there a way to signal in windows?

Was it helpful?

Solution

The answers I have found are:

  • No, you cannot signal in Windows.
  • No, there is no alternative way coded in openRTSP. The windows build simply #ifdefs out the signalling code.

A named Mutex is probably the easiest way of coding up the same feature.
