Here's a little application problem I'm dealing with right now. Any input from experienced mach programmers would be appreciated: I'd like to be able to catch, via a user process, when any process running under Mach terminates either normally or abnormally. I believe this can be done with exception port manipulation, but I'm not sure how (I'm new to mach programming). I'd also like to be able to catch a normal exit, and I suspect I can modify some library code to do that ( put code inside exit() for example), but if there's a more general way of catching this event, please enlighten me.... FYI: The reason I want to do this is to tidy up some special data structures that will be shared with other processes.
