exit() calls atexit() handlers and C++ destructors (e.g. a C++ weston module) which could destroy state that the main process depends on (e.g. ioctl's, tmpfiles, sockets, etc...). If an exec fails, call _exit() instead of exit(). v2: prefer _exit over _Exit Signed-off-by: U. Artie Eoff <ullysses.a.eoff@intel.com>
Weston Weston is the reference implementation of a Wayland compositor, and a useful compositor in its own right. Weston has various backends that lets it run on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input as well as under X11. Weston ships with a few example clients, from simple clients that demonstrate certain aspects of the protocol to more complete clients and a simplistic toolkit. There is also a quite capable terminal emulator (weston-terminal) and an toy/example desktop shell. Finally, weston also provides integration with the Xorg server and can pull X clients into the Wayland desktop and act as a X window manager. Refer to http://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html for buiding weston and its dependencies.
