#71 closed defect (fixed)

QProcess::startDetached() doesn't work

Description

Since P_DETACH isn't supported by kLIBC's spawnvpe(), QProcess::startDetached() that relies on that doesn't work. This needs to be fixed, possibly by calling DosExecPgm directly.

Not a blocker, since we haven't decided about its importance for real apps yet.

comment:2 by Silvan Scherrer, 15 years ago

would it be a big problem to fix that behaviour in klibc?

comment:3 by Dmitry A. Kuminov, 15 years ago

Probably not, the question is who is responsible for releasing kLIBC now. I don't want the DLL hell.

comment:4 by Silvan Scherrer, 15 years ago

in theory still Knut. we already have a small dll hell, as with samba we have libc0.6.4x
eventually we can convience Knut in releasing a libc0.6.4 with all the fixes already done and some more. will talk to you on friday
