Title Changing the current working directory of a child process.
Ref. No. QNX.000010364
Category(ies) Development
Issue How can one change the current working directory of the child process started by spawn ()? An example would be changing TAR's working directory when it is started.
Solution Unfortunatly you can't unless you somehow signal the child (with any of the IPC) and the child has some code to handle it.
