This is unit of type 'simple'.

NOTIFY_SOCKET is filled-in by systemd and it is available when you correctly defined unit type. If you want to check it's value, you can user getenv() inside you program and print the value. I think amount of documentation about NOTIFY_SOCKET is enough, if you think there's something specific missing, let us know. -- Tomasz Torcz "Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station xmpp: zdzich...@chrome.pl wagon filled with backup tapes." -- Jim Gray _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
