Module ThreadUnix


module ThreadUnix: sig  end
Deprecated. The functionality of this module has been merged back into the Unix module. Threaded programs can now call the functions from module Unix directly, and still get the correct behavior (block the calling thread, if required, but do not block all threads in the process).
Thread-compatible system calls.



Process handling


val execv : string -> string array -> unit
val execve : string -> string array -> string array -> unit
val execvp : string -> string array -> unit
val wait : unit -> int * Unix.process_status
val waitpid : Unix.wait_flag list -> int -> int * Unix.process_status
val system : string -> Unix.process_status


Basic input/output


val read : Unix.file_descr -> string -> int -> int -> int
val write : Unix.file_descr -> string -> int -> int -> int


Input/output with timeout


val timed_read : Unix.file_descr -> string -> int -> int -> float -> int
See ThreadUnix.timed_write.
val timed_write : Unix.file_descr -> string -> int -> int -> float -> int
Behave as ThreadUnix.read and ThreadUnix.write, except that Unix_error(ETIMEDOUT,_,_) is raised if no data is available for reading or ready for writing after d seconds. The delay d is given in the fifth argument, in seconds.


Polling


val select : Unix.file_descr list ->
Unix.file_descr list ->
Unix.file_descr list ->
float -> Unix.file_descr list * Unix.file_descr list * Unix.file_descr list


Pipes and redirections


val pipe : unit -> Unix.file_descr * Unix.file_descr
val open_process_in : string -> Pervasives.in_channel
val open_process_out : string -> Pervasives.out_channel
val open_process : string -> Pervasives.in_channel * Pervasives.out_channel


Time


val sleep : int -> unit


Sockets


val socket : Unix.socket_domain -> Unix.socket_type -> int -> Unix.file_descr
val accept : Unix.file_descr -> Unix.file_descr * Unix.sockaddr
val connect : Unix.file_descr -> Unix.sockaddr -> unit
val recv : Unix.file_descr -> string -> int -> int -> Unix.msg_flag list -> int
val recvfrom : Unix.file_descr ->
string -> int -> int -> Unix.msg_flag list -> int * Unix.sockaddr
val send : Unix.file_descr -> string -> int -> int -> Unix.msg_flag list -> int
val sendto : Unix.file_descr ->
string -> int -> int -> Unix.msg_flag list -> Unix.sockaddr -> int
val open_connection : Unix.sockaddr -> Pervasives.in_channel * Pervasives.out_channel
