Re: Help! Shared memory is getting deleted after process is killed

After killing my process, when I do ipcs, I am unable to see the shared
memory created. Also, I am getting the errno as ENOENT, which means
that it has created it since key does not exist.(#define ENOENT 2
/* No such file or directory */)

Thanks,
Anu.

Well, sysv shm isn't removed until you do so, wether the process
that created it still exists or not.

up, the sharedmemory is getting cleared. Can anyone of you let me know
why this is happening.

How do you determin it is gone ?
