See the ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS section. + + >0 An error occurred. + + +CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS + Default. + + The following sections are informative. + +APPLICATION USAGE + None. + +EXAMPLES + The sleep utility can be used to execute a command after + a certain amount of time, as in: + + + (sleep 105; command) & + + or to execute a command every so often, as in: + + + while true + do + command sleep 37 + done + +RATIONALE + The exit status is allowed to be zero when sleep is + interrupted by the SIGALRM signal because most implemen- + tations of this utility rely on the arrival of that sig- + nal to notify them that the requested finishing time has + been successfully attained. Such implementations thus + do not distinguish this situation from the successful + completion case. Other implementations are allowed to + catch the signal and go back to sleep until the + requested time expires or to provide the normal signal + termination procedures. + + As with all other utilities that take integral operands + and do not specify subranges of allowed values, sleep is + required by this volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 to deal + with time requests of up to 2147483647 seconds. This may + mean that some implementations have to make multiple + calls to the delay mechanism of the underlying operating + system if its argument range is less than this. + +FUTURE DIRECTIONS + None. + +SEE ALSO + wait , the System Interfaces volume of + IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, alarm(), sleep() + +COPYRIGHT + Portions of this text are reprinted and reproduced in + electronic form from IEEE Std 1003.1, 2003 Edition, + Standard for Information Technology -- Portable Operat- + ing System Interface (POSIX), The Open Group Base Speci- + fications Issue 6, Copyright (C) 2001-2003 by the Insti- + tute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc and + The Open Group.
