SYNOPSIS

9       vsig

11

DESCRIPTION

13       The  vsig  executable  sends  a  SIGUSR2 signal to the controlling FMLI
14       process. This signal/alarm causes FMLI to  execute  the  FMLI  built-in
15       command  checkworld  which  causes  all  posted  objects  with a reread
16       descriptor evaluating to  TRUE to be reread. vsig takes no arguments.

EXAMPLES

25         echo "Sending this string to an FMLI process"
26         vsig

31       The vsig executable will flush the output buffer before  it  sends  the
32       SIGUSR2  signal to make sure the string is actually in the pipe created
33       by the cocreate function.

NOTES

52       Because vsig synchronize with FMLI, it should be used rather than  kill
53       to send a SIGUSR2 signal to FMLI.
