I’ve an application where i use the fork () function :
…
child_pid = fork ();
if (child_pid)
{
message_loop (); /* Send and Receive */
}
/* Here’s the child */
child_stuff_using_photon ();
It seems that i can’t continue using photon events in the child … My app
is created using phab.
Any thoughts ?

Do not use Photon services in a forked process. Better have a single (main)
process which is responsible for all Photon GUI calls and maybe a set of
forked childs doing some jobs. At least this way it works fine for me.
