Subject: [ruby-core:23088] [Bug #1342] signal handling on HP-UX

Issue #1342 has been updated by Graham Agnew.


Hi Dave,

Granted this won't be available everywhere, however it remains that, setjmp and longjmp are not necessarily appropriate in HP-UX.  The man page for setjmp/longjmp on HP-UX has the following:

> The effect of a call to longjmp() where the initialization of the jmp_buf argument was not performed in the calling thread is undefined.

So where available, shouldn't the getcontext / setcontext routines be used?

Cheers,
Gra.
