/*
* ISC Application Support
*
* Dealing with program termination can be difficult, especially in a
* multithreaded program. The routines in this module help coordinate
* the shutdown process. They are used as follows by the initial (main)
* thread of the application:
*
* isc_app_start(); Call very early in main(), before
* any other threads have been created.
*
* isc_app_run(); This will post any on-run events,
* and then block until application
* shutdown is requested. A shutdown
* request is made by calling
* isc_app_shutdown(), or by sending
* SIGINT or SIGTERM to the process.
* After isc_app_run() returns, the
* application should shutdown itself.
*
* isc_app_finish(); Call very late in main().
*
* Applications that want to use SIGHUP/isc_app_reload() to trigger reloading
* should check the result of isc_app_run() and call the reload routine if
* the result is ISC_R_RELOAD. They should then call isc_app_run() again
* to resume waiting for reload or termination.
*
* Use of this module is not required. In particular, isc_app_start() is
* NOT an ISC library initialization routine.
*
* MP:
* Clients must ensure that isc_app_start(), isc_app_run(), and
* isc_app_finish() are called at most once. isc_app_shutdown()
* is safe to use by any thread (provided isc_app_start() has been
* called previously).
*
* Reliability:
* No anticipated impact.
*
* Resources:
* None.
*
* Security:
* No anticipated impact.
*
* Standards:
* None.
