  • Dynamically redirecting a file descriptor of an executing process by another process by optionally suspending the executing process
    Patent number: 8701114
    Abstract: An apparatus for dynamically redirecting a file descriptor includes an identification module, a disassociation module, and an association module. The identification module identifies a first executing process using a second executing process. The first executing process may include a file descriptor and the first executing process may be independent of the second executing process. The disassociation module disassociates the file descriptor from a first data stream using the second executing process without involvement of the first executing process. The association module associates the file descriptor with a second data stream using the second executing process without involvement of the first executing process in response to the disassociation module disassociating the file descriptor from the first data stream.
