Re: Subsystem monitor job

["Simon Coulter" <shc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The correct way of handling this is to register a program or procedure
that is invoked when the program or job ends.

You can use the Unix signal handling APIs (see the Unix API manual)

You can use the C-runtime atexit and atiexit functions (see the C Runtime
manual)

You can use ILE cancel handlers (see the ILE CEE API manual)

You can register a function that will get control regardless of how the
job ends and do whatever clean up you need.  Needless to say, this cleanup
should be performed as quickly as possible.

I have used all the above techniques in various situations.  Use the one
you feel most comfortable with.
