Sorry for replying late... The task that I want to achieve is to catch the HUP signal and send notification about the process. But due to addition of sybase::ctlib it catches the signal and my program fails. Another issue is that sybase::ctlib is used throughout in our project and I cannot change it just for this... My process runs as a daemon and when it starts up it creates a file containing pid of it. So that indicates the process is up and runing. But when the m/c is shutdown, HUP signals are sent to all process runinig and I want to track it and delete the pid file created. But its not happeining.... Is there any other way to achive this....
