#7732: Allow killing of processes which are known by a System.Process.ProcessHandle ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: timthelion | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: libraries/process Version: 7.4.2-rc1 | Keywords: Os: Linux | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: None/Unknown | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- There is no way to kill a process that is known only by it's ProcessHandle. That is, if I use createProcess to create a process, there is no way to kill it again. I can terminate it with terminateProcess but this is not the same. I would like to be able to kill processes as well. I think that something like this(completely untested change) would be good: https://github.com/timthelion/packages- process/commit/10ecc56682b9b71d3c196e47297b0f496cdc2bd7 https://github.com/timthelion/packages- process/commit/c4cdd064d7c154f41a5b2b7f73c6b0ac0b2dccb9 https://github.com/timthelion/packages- process/commit/1588100655f18bc2811edc0a5911e2b14a1ee411 -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7732 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
