    Hi

I have a problem using sigaction function in pthread library.
I have 2 thread each one registering

in threadA
 act1.sa_handler=func1;
 if(sigaction(SIGUSR1,&act1,NULL)) printf("\nSigaction failed! in th1
!!\n");

in threadB
 act1.sa_handler=func2;
 if(sigaction(SIGUSR1,&act2,NULL)) printf("\nSigaction failed! in th2
!!\n");

but when i send signal SIGUSR1 to threadA , threadA  receives the
signal
but the handler func2 is getting called,


Please let me know is there any way to solve this problem?
thanks in advance
thomas


Signal handlers are global to the process. You can't create different handlers for the same signal in multiple threads.
