[libdc1394-devel] fork() problem

[Martin M. <mar...@vi...>]

I am trying to make a Client-Server application using 2 1394 cameras. 
The way the server works is that it creates a handle for both camera on 
the bus and sets them up, after that it waits for incoming connections 
and as soon as one comes in it forks a child. The child handles the 
connection then terminates. My problem occurs whenever a child 
terminates. Once one has terminated, my server is unable to anything 
else from the 1394 bus.

What I am thinking is that when a child closes, the raw handle closes 
and causes some problem.

Is what I am thinking is happening right? Could there be a better way 
then a fork on demand? Help would be very appreciated!

Thank you
Martin
