10.2 Registering an Asynchronous Event Handler

To register an event handler, use the following syntax:

  SET ^$JOB($JOB,"EVENT",event-class,event-identifier)=entryref

For example, use the following to register ^RESIZE as an asynchronous event handler for SIGWINCH events:

  SET ^$JOB($JOB,"EVENT","INTERRUPT","SIGWINCH")="^RESIZE"

This by itself will not enable asynchronous event handling, as it merely registers an event handler, associating it with event class INTERRUPT and event identifier SIGWINCH.
