#11797 closed bug (fixed)

Calling getpid() from constructor of global static object returns 0

Reported by: tokoe Owned by: nobody
Priority: normal Milestone: R1/beta4
Component: System/POSIX Version: R1/Development
Keywords: Cc:
Blocked By: Blocking: #17723
Platform: x86

Description

If you call getpid() from within the constructor of a custom class and create a global static object of that class, getpid() returns 0 instead of the process ID. Calling getpid() from inside main() function or any scope that is entered later on, works fine.

This ID is local and initialized by the function calling the main(), after global constructors. Caching this ID is probably a "bad idea" anyway.

So is there a chance to fix that behavior (because on other Unix/POSIX systems like Linux, FreeBSD or MacOSX it works), or are there any technical limitations in the process handling/C runtime of Haiku?
