Using SIGINT

Question

According to this http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/clibrary/csignal/signal.html

SIGINT is generally used/cause by the user. How do i cause a SIG

Answer 1

C89 and C99 define raise() in signal.h:

#include 

int raise(int sig);

This function sends a signal to the calling process, and is equivalent to

kill(getpid(), sig);

If the platform supports threads, then the call is equivalent to

pthread_kill(pthread_self(), sig);

The return value is 0 on success, nonzero otherwise.
