wait-state-collection

boolean
A boolean.
Description

The function wait-state-collection-alive-p returns true if the process associated with wait-state-collection is alive and false otherwise.

wait-state-collection-alive-p is useful for checking if a wait-state-collection that was created by create-and-run-wait-state-collection is still alive and can be used. The result is not meaningful if wait-state-collection is managed explicitly by the "lower-level" functions like wait-for-wait-state-collection.
