我也曾在俄罗斯 Cocoa Developers Slack 频道问过这个问题，并收到了来自Dmitry Rodionov 的回答。他用俄语回答了这个要点：ctrlc-ptty-nstask.markdown，并同意我在这里发布它的英文版。
他的实现基于 Pokey McPokerson 的建议，但更直接：他使用来自 Technical Q&A QA1123
Getting List of All Processes on Mac OS X 的 GetBSDProcessList() 来获取子进程的列表并向每个子进程发送 SIGINT：
kinfo_proc *procs = NULL;
size_t count;
if (0 != GetBSDProcessList(&procs, &count)) {
return;
}
BOOL hasChildren = NO;
for (size_t i = 0; i < count; i++) {
// If the process if a child of our bash process we send SIGINT to it
if (procs[i].kp_eproc.e_ppid == task.processIdentifier) {
hasChildren = YES;
kill(procs[i].kp_proc.p_pid, SIGINT);
}
}
free(procs);
如果一个进程没有子进程，他会直接向该进程发送 SIGINT：
if (hasChildren == NO) {
kill(task.processIdentifier, SIGINT);
}
这种方法非常有效，但是有两个可能的问题（我个人并不关心，目前我正在编写自己的玩具终端）：
- 每次按下 Ctrl-C 时枚举所有进程非常详尽。也许有更好的方法来查找子进程。
- 我和 Dmitriy 我们都不确定杀死所有子进程是否是 Ctrl-C 在实际终端中的工作方式。
Dmitriy 的完整代码如下：
- (void)keyDown:(NSEvent *)theEvent
{
NSUInteger flags = theEvent.modifierFlags;
unsigned short keyCode = theEvent.keyCode;
if ((flags & NSControlKeyMask) && keyCode == 8) {
[self sendCtrlC];
} else if ((flags & NSControlKeyMask) && keyCode == 2) {
[masterHandle writeData:[NSData dataWithBytes: "\004" length:1]];
} else if ((flags & NSDeviceIndependentModifierFlagsMask) == 0 && keyCode == 126) {
NSLog(@"up");
} else if ((flags & NSDeviceIndependentModifierFlagsMask) == 0 && keyCode == 125) {
NSLog(@"down");
} else {
[super keyDown:theEvent];
}
}
// #include <sys/sysctl.h>
// typedef struct kinfo_proc kinfo_proc;
- (void)sendCtrlC
{
[masterHandle writeData:[NSData dataWithBytes: "\003" length:1]];
kinfo_proc *procs = NULL;
size_t count;
if (0 != GetBSDProcessList(&procs, &count)) {
return;
}
BOOL hasChildren = NO;
for (size_t i = 0; i < count; i++) {
if (procs[i].kp_eproc.e_ppid == task.processIdentifier) {
hasChildren = YES;
kill(procs[i].kp_proc.p_pid, SIGINT);
}
}
free(procs);
if (hasChildren == NO) {
kill(task.processIdentifier, SIGINT);
}
}
