Flags passed to g_spawn_sync(), g_spawn_async() and g_spawn_async_with_pipes().
G_SPAWN_DEFAULT
no flags, default behaviour
G_SPAWN_LEAVE_DESCRIPTORS_OPEN
the parent's open file descriptors will be
inherited by the child; otherwise all descriptors except stdin/stdout/stderr
will be closed before calling exec() in the child.
G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD
the child will not be automatically reaped; you
must use g_child_watch_add() yourself (or call waitpid()
or handle SIGCHLD yourself), or the child will become a zombie.
G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH
argv[0] need not be an absolute path,
it will be looked for in the user's PATH.
G_SPAWN_STDOUT_TO_DEV_NULL
the child's standard output will be discarded,
instead of going to the same location as the parent's standard output.
G_SPAWN_STDERR_TO_DEV_NULL
the child's standard error will be discarded.
G_SPAWN_CHILD_INHERITS_STDIN
the child will inherit the parent's standard
input (by default, the child's standard input is attached to
/dev/null).
G_SPAWN_FILE_AND_ARGV_ZERO
the first element of argv is
the file to execute, while the remaining elements are the actual argument
vector to pass to the file. Normally g_spawn_async_with_pipes() uses
argv[0] as the file to execute, and passes all of
argv to the child.
G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH_FROM_ENVP
if argv[0] is not an abolute path,
it will be looked for in the PATH from the passed child
environment. Since: 2.34
