Ruby Signal Functions
EditRocket provides the following information on Signal functions in the Ruby source code builder.
list - Returns a list of signal names mapped to the corresponding underlying signal numbers.
trap( signal, proc ) - Specifies the handling of signals. The first parameter is a signal name (a string such as ``SIGALRM'', ``SIGUSR1'', and so on) or a signal number. The characters ``SIG'' may be omitted from the signal name. The command or block specifies code to be run when the signal is raised. If the command is the string ``IGNORE'' or ``SIG_IGN'', the signal will be ignored. If the command is ``DEFAULT'' or ``SIG_DFL'', the operating system's default handler will be invoked. If the command is ``EXIT'', the script will be terminated by the signal. Otherwise, the given command or block will be run. The special signal name ``EXIT'' or signal number zero will be invoked just prior to program termination. trap returns the previous handler for the given signal.
