type t
include Bin_prot.Binable.S with type t := t
include Bin_prot.Binable.S_only_functions with type t := t
val bin_size_t : t Bin_prot.Size.sizer
val bin_write_t : t Bin_prot.Write.writer
val bin_read_t : t Bin_prot.Read.reader
val __bin_read_t__ : (int -> t) Bin_prot.Read.reader

This function only needs implementation if t exposed to be a polymorphic variant. Despite what the type reads, this does *not* produce a function after reading; instead it takes the constructor tag (int) before reading and reads the rest of the variant t afterwards.

val (>=) : t -> t -> bool

val (>) : t -> t -> bool
val (<) : t -> t -> bool
val (<>) : t -> t -> bool
val min : t -> t -> t
val max : t -> t -> t
val ascending : t -> t -> int

ascending is identical to compare. descending x y = ascending y x. These are intended to be mnemonic when used like List.sort ~compare:ascending and List.sort ~cmp:descending, since they cause the list to be sorted in ascending or descending order, respectively.

val descending : t -> t -> int
val between : t -> low:t -> high:t -> bool

between t ~low ~high means low <= t <= high

val clamp_exn : t -> min:t -> max:t -> t

clamp_exn t ~min ~max returns t', the closest value to t such that between t' ~low:min ~high:max is true.

Raises if not (min <= max).

val clamp : t -> min:t -> max:t -> t Base.Or_error.t

include Base.Stringable.S with type t := t
val of_string : string -> t
val equal : t -> t -> Base.Bool.t
val of_caml_int : Base.Int.t -> t

of_caml_int constructs a Signal.t given an OCaml internal signal number. This is only for the use of the Core_unix module.

val to_caml_int : t -> Base.Int.t
val to_string : t -> Base.String.t

to_string t returns a human-readable name: "sigabrt", "sigalrm", ...

The behaviour of the system if a signal is received by a process. See include/linux/kernel.h in the Linux kernel source tree (not the file /usr/include/linux/kernel.h).

val __sys_behavior_of_sexp__ : Sexplib0.Sexp.t -> sys_behavior
val default_sys_behavior : t -> sys_behavior

Queries the default system behavior for a signal.

val handle_default : t -> Base.Unit.t

handle_default t is set t `Default.

val ignore : t -> Base.Unit.t

ignore t is set t `Ignore.
