Functions
| Name | typedef Keyword | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Ability_ChildProcessConfigs* OH_Ability_CreateChildProcessConfigs() | - | Creates a child process configuration object. When this object is no longer needed, call OH_Ability_DestroyChildProcessConfigs to destroy the object to prevent memory leakage. |
| Ability_NativeChildProcess_ErrCode OH_Ability_DestroyChildProcessConfigs(Ability_ChildProcessConfigs* configs) | - | Destroys a child process configuration object and releases its memory. After this function is called, do not use the destroyed object. |
| Ability_NativeChildProcess_ErrCode OH_Ability_ChildProcessConfigs_SetIsolationMode(Ability_ChildProcessConfigs* configs, NativeChildProcess_IsolationMode isolationMode) | - | Sets the sharing mode of the data sandbox and network environment for a child process configuration object. For details, see NativeChildProcess_IsolationMode. This setting takes effect only when OH_Ability_StartNativeChildProcessWithConfigs or OH_Ability_CreateNativeChildProcessWithConfigs is called. |
| Ability_NativeChildProcess_ErrCode OH_Ability_ChildProcessConfigs_SetProcessName(Ability_ChildProcessConfigs* configs,const char* processName) | - | Sets the process name in a child process configuration object. |
| typedef void (*OH_Ability_OnNativeChildProcessStarted)(int errCode, OHIPCRemoteProxy *remoteProxy) | OH_Ability_OnNativeChildProcessStarted | Creates a child process based on a child process configuration object and loads the specified DLL file. The startup result is asynchronously communicated to the caller via a callback. The callback runs in a separate thread. You must ensure thread synchronization and avoid time-consuming operations to prevent delays. |
| int OH_Ability_CreateNativeChildProcess(const char* libName,OH_Ability_OnNativeChildProcessStarted onProcessStarted) | - | Creates a child process, loads the specified Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file, and returns the startup result asynchronously through a callback parameter. The callback notification is an independent thread. When implementing the callback function, pay attention to thread synchronization and do not perform time-consuming operations to avoid long-time blocking. The DLL specified must implement and export the following functions: 1. OHIPCRemoteStub* NativeChildProcess_OnConnect() 2. void NativeChildProcess_MainProc() The processing logic sequence is shown in the following pseudocode: Parent process: 1. OH_Ability_CreateNativeChildProcess(libName, onProcessStartedCallback) Child process: 2. dlopen(libName) 3. dlsym("NativeChildProcess_OnConnect") 4. dlsym("NativeChildProcess_MainProc") 5. ipcRemote = NativeChildProcess_OnConnect() 6. NativeChildProcess_MainProc() Parent process: 7. onProcessStartedCallback(ipcRemote, errCode) Child process: 8. The child process exits after the NativeChildProcess_MainProc() function is returned. Device behavior differences: For API version 13 and earlier, this function can be properly called on PCs/2-in-1 devices. If it is called on other devices, error code NCP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED is returned. Starting from API version 14, this function can be properly called on PCs/2-in-1 devices and tablets. If it is called on other devices, error code NCP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED is returned. Note: In API version 14 and earlier versions, a single process supports only one native child process. Starting from API version 15, a single process supports a maximum of 50 native child processes. |
