pls help me out in my program.
My probelm in the program-
I require all-together separate thread to do my work. But when create separate thread and invoke functionality from this thread, my signal handler doesnt return. But when work from main itself(single thread), the program works fine.
I shall be thankful if anyone cud resolve this.
