Enum std.process.member Config.inheritFDs

On POSIX, open file descriptors are by default inherited by the child process. As this may lead to subtle bugs when pipes or multiple threads are involved, spawnProcess ensures that all file descriptors except the ones that correspond to standard input/output/error are closed in the child process when it starts. Use inheritFDs to prevent this.

On Windows, this option has no effect, and any handles which have been explicitly marked as inheritable will always be inherited by the child process.

Declaration

enum Config
{
	// ...
	inheritFDs = 32,
	// ...
