Is there an error in POCO C++ library documentation?

Question

Here is the confusing page. Search for "/bin/ps". The line is:

ProcessHandle ph(launch("/bin/ps", args, &outPipe, 0, 0));

Shouldnt it be:

ProcessHandle ph(launch("/bin/ps", args, 0, &outPipe, 0));

?

Answer 1

Yes, your observation is confirmed - the order of the last three args is indeed stdin, stdout, stderr, so the outPipe in the docs is erroneously getting passed as the input instead. I have no more idea than you have, how this doc error may have gone unnoticed!-)

Answer 2

This will be fixed in 1.3.6.
