So I have this function that forks N number of child processes. However it seems to be forking more than specified. Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks
void forkChildren(int nChildren){ int i; for(i = 1; i <= nChildren; i++){ pid = fork();...

That's why you must take care of the return code in your logic .
The resulting child process continues execution after the fork() call.

I have an SSIS Mulitcast object that splits my flow into 2 paths.
In the first path I insert the flow into another database.
In the second path I update the rows of the flow to show that they were inserted.
I need a way to make one path wait until the...

You can only enforce precedence constraints (i.e.
In that case I would not use a multicast but a regular dataflow so that one doesn't start before the first one completed successfully
You can't do that in SSIS .

Any process that spawns another process without itself terminating is a fork - for example, every command that's executed at a shell will be counted as a fork.

Yes, your Hill Topper kit fits standard bike forks. The kit will fit nearly all bikes with forks that are 100mm apart at the tips (dropouts). Most hybrid, mountain, and comfort bikes fit this profile.
Folding bikes usually have smaller fork widths and...

Front fork is actually a Rock Shox and while the dropouts are 100 mm, the fork gradually tapers as you head up the fork to about 74 mm at its skinniest part which is about 7 inches up from the dropouts stand by for a 'fork....

If I setup sighandler and then do a fork. Will the child process also inherit the sighandlers?

So, while the pending signals do not make it through the fork to the (parent) process.
Quoting the Linux fork(2) man page :
fork() creates a child process that differs from the parent and pending signals are not inherited.

Or in other words, your nice linear easy to think of program suddenly becomes two separate programs running one piece of code:

fork() splits the current process into two processes.

I have found examples of how to fork multiple children by having something like this:
if ( fork() = 0 ) { //In child } else { if ( fork() = 0 ) { //in second child
But if I don't know how many children I am going to need, how might I do this?
For instance...

My issue is related to using fork() within Perl code. I wish to fork a new process and capture its PID and return it back to the callee program. Is there some command in Perl which would make this possible?

Well, Perl's fork function returns PID of child to parent and 0 to child, isn't that....
Yes, fork
Quoting from that page:
It returns the child pid to the parent process , 0 to the child process, or undef if the fork is unsuccessful.

As soon as there is a fork call, a trap instruction follows and control jumps to execute the fork "handler" . Now,How does this handler , which creates the child process,...

How do you use the fork() command in such a way that you can spawn 10 processes and have them do a small task concurrently.
Concurrent is the operative word, many places that show how to use fork only use one call to fork() in their demos. I thought you...
