I think that might be a bit hyperbolic. The associated CR is 6488832, which was fixed in Nevada build 53, and is in progress for S10. The issue is fairly narrow and affects only a few usage patterns of posix_spawn. Unfortunately, one of them is ksh93, but that most certainly does not mean that _all_ designers should avoid posix_spawn in _all_ cases. Instead, see the CR first, and determine if it matters for what you're trying to do. -- James Carlson, KISS Network <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
