I have 2 programs. One is server one is client. The Client sending string to the server, the server is swapping the string and return to the client. the problems I have is when I pressing ctr c the program(client) closed.(I'm using threads because I have been asking for.)

So how can I keep the program unclosed after ctr c?

when clicking enter this is the right result and waiting for the server.

when entering ctl c the program closed and cannot running server.c

The client.

    #include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <time.h>
#define MAX_BUF 1024
// client
int main()
{
  int fd;
  char *myfifo = "myfifo";
  char str[MAX_BUF];

  printf("Input string: ");
  fgets(str, MAX_BUF, stdin);
  str[strlen(str) - 1] = '\0';

  if (mkfifo("myfifo", 0777) == -1)
  {
    if (errno != EEXIST)
    {
      printf("Could not create fifo file\n");
      return 1;
    }
  }

  /* create the FIFO (named pipe) */
  fd = open(myfifo, O_WRONLY);
  if (fd == -1)
    return 2;
  if (write(fd, str, MAX_BUF) == -1)
    return 3;
  close(fd);

  fd = open(myfifo, O_RDONLY);
  read(fd, str, MAX_BUF);
  printf("%s\n", str);
  /* remove the FIFO */
  unlink(myfifo);

  return 0;
}

The server

    char string[MAX_BUF] = {0};
    char c = 0;
    int length = 0, i = 0;

    length = strlen(tdata->str);
    printf("\nBefore Swap : %s\n", tdata->str);

    for (i = 0; i < length / 2; i  )

CodePudding user response：

To avoid closing a program you should capture and manage the signal sent by CTRL C, that is SIGINT, I have modified the code so that it captures the signal CTRL C

#include  <signal.h> 

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>

#include <errno.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <time.h>
#define MAX_BUF 1024
// client

int main()
{
   signal(SIGINT,SIG_IGN); // Register signal handler for ignoring the signal
  int fd;
  char *myfifo = "myfifo";
  char str[MAX_BUF];

  printf("Input string: ");
  fgets(str, MAX_BUF, stdin);
  str[strlen(str) - 1] = '\0';

  if (mkfifo("myfifo", 0777) == -1)
  {
    if (errno != EEXIST)
    {
      printf("Could not create fifo file\n");
      return 1;
    }
  }

  /* create the FIFO (named pipe) */
  fd = open(myfifo, O_WRONLY);
  if (fd == -1)
    return 2;
  if (write(fd, str, MAX_BUF) == -1)
    return 3;
  close(fd);

  fd = open(myfifo, O_RDONLY);
