native_child_process.h

Overview

The native_child_process.h file declares the APIs used to create a native child process and establish an IPC channel between the main process and child process. A maximum of 512 child processes can be started through this module and childProcessManager (non-SELF_FORK mode).

Library: libchild_process.so

System capability: SystemCapability.Ability.AbilityRuntime.Core

Since: 12

Related module: ChildProcess

Functions

Name	Description
int OH_Ability_CreateNativeChildProcess (const char *libName, OH_Ability_OnNativeChildProcessStarted onProcessStarted)	Creates a child process, loads the specified dynamic library file, and returns the startup result asynchronously through a callback parameter. The callback notification is an independent thread. When implementing the callback function, pay attention to thread synchronization and do not perform time-consuming operations to avoid long-time blocking. NOTE Currently, this function is valid only for 2-in-1 devices. Since API version 15, a single process supports a maximum of 50 native child processes. In API version 14 and earlier versions, a single process supports only one native child process.
Ability_NativeChildProcess_ErrCode OH_Ability_StartNativeChildProcess(const char* entry, NativeChildProcess_Args args, NativeChildProcess_Options options, int32_t *pid)	Starts a child process, loads the specified dynamic library file, and calls the entry function. Arguments can be passed to the child process. NOTE Currently, this function is valid only for 2-in-1 devices and tablets.
NativeChildProcess_Args* OH_Ability_GetCurrentChildProcessArgs()	Used by a child process, after being started by calling OH_Ability_StartNativeChildProcess, to obtain the startup parameter NativeChildProcess_Args from any .so file or child thread. NOTE Currently, this function is valid only for 2-in-1 devices and tablets.
Ability_NativeChildProcess_ErrCode OH_Ability_RegisterNativeChildProcessExitCallback(OH_Ability_OnNativeChildProcessExit onProcessExit)	Registers a callback function for detecting abnormal exit of a native child process. It is used to obtain the information about the child process that exits abnormally.
Ability_NativeChildProcess_ErrCode OH_Ability_UnregisterNativeChildProcessExitCallback(OH_Ability_OnNativeChildProcessExit onProcessExit)	Unregisters the callback function used for detecting abnormal exit of a native child process.
