Hi,
I made some modifications to your source code and now it works well.
Here it is:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <signal.h>
void terminate(int a);
void ctrlbrk(void (*fptr)(int))
{
signal (SIGINT, fptr);
}
void terminate(int a)
{
puts("I am doing clean up and exiting because you hit Contro-C");
exit (0);
}
int main()
{
ctrlbrk(terminate); // when ^c is hit call the cleanup funtion
while (1)
puts("I am running on and on and on and on!");
}
