I am programming in Linux using C/C++. I have a problem, i am trying to find a function or something in order to get number of child processes in parent process.
Help me please
Thanks
I’m not sure if POSIX defines a function for this, but you could always count them in a global variable yourself, just add 1 after every fork on the parent, and set it to 0 on the child..
