killPid method
Kills the process with id pid
.
Where possible, sends the signal
to the process with id
pid
. This includes Linux and OS X. The default signal is
ProcessSignal.sigterm which will normally terminate the
process.
On platforms without signal support, including Windows, the call
just terminates the process with id pid
in a platform specific
way, and the signal
parameter is ignored.
Returns true
if the signal is successfully delivered to the
process. Otherwise the signal could not be sent, usually meaning
that the process is already dead.
Implementation
external static bool killPid(int pid,
[ProcessSignal signal = ProcessSignal.sigterm]);
