Hi, I have a Cygwin program that:
- registers a SIGINT handler, via signal(SIGINT,h)
- creates a window, using Win32 CreateWindow
- and is then calling PeekMessage for that window in a loop
It appears that while PeekMessage is being called, any SIGINTs sent to the
program are lost. Is this to be expected as it's not really supported or a
bug?
To reproduce:
- Compile and run the attached example program, and repeatedly press CTRL-C
in the console.
- Only maybe 1 of every 10 or 20 times CTRL-C is pressed, is the signal
handler called.
- Similarly, running 'kill -SIGINT PID' results in most of the signals being
ignored.
- Remove the call to PeekMessage, and the signals are received.
Cheers,
Jon
