/** @pred alarm(+ _Seconds_,+ _Callable_,+ _OldAlarm_)
Arranges for YAP to be interrupted in _Seconds_ seconds, or in
[ _Seconds_| _MicroSeconds_]. When interrupted, YAP will execute
_Callable_ and then return to the previous execution. If
_Seconds_ is `0`, no new alarm is scheduled. In any event,
any previously set alarm is canceled.
The variable _OldAlarm_ unifies with the number of seconds remaining
until any previously scheduled alarm was due to be delivered, or with
`0` if there was no previously scheduled alarm.
Note that execution of _Callable_ will wait if YAP is
executing built-in predicates, such as Input/Output operations.
The next example shows how _alarm/3_ can be used to implement a
simple clock:
~~~~~
loop :- loop.
ticker :- write('.'), flush_output,
get_value(tick, yes),
alarm(1,ticker,_).
:- set_value(tick, yes), alarm(1,ticker,_), loop.
~~~~~
The clock, `ticker`, writes a dot and then checks the flag
`tick` to see whether it can continue ticking. If so, it calls
itself again. Note that there is no guarantee that the each dot
corresponds a second: for instance, if the YAP is waiting for
user input, `ticker` will wait until the user types the entry in.
The next example shows how alarm/3 can be used to guarantee that
a certain procedure does not take longer than a certain amount of time:
~~~~~
loop :- loop.
:- catch((alarm(10, throw(ball), _),loop),
ball,
format('Quota exhausted.~n',[])).
~~~~~
In this case after `10` seconds our `loop` is interrupted,
`ball` is thrown, and the handler writes `Quota exhausted`.
Execution then continues from the handler.
Note that in this case `loop/0` always executes until the alarm is
sent. Often, the code you are executing succeeds or fails before the
alarm is actually delivered. In this case, you probably want to disable
the alarm when you leave the procedure. The next procedure does exactly so:
~~~~~
once_with_alarm(Time,Goal,DoOnAlarm) :-
catch(execute_once_with_alarm(Time, Goal), alarm, DoOnAlarm).
execute_once_with_alarm(Time, Goal) :-
alarm(Time, alarm, _),
( call(Goal) -> alarm(0, alarm, _) ; alarm(0, alarm, _), fail).
~~~~~
The procedure `once_with_alarm/3` has three arguments:
the _Time_ to wait before the alarm is
sent; the _Goal_ to execute; and the goal _DoOnAlarm_ to execute
if the alarm is sent. It uses catch/3 to handle the case the
`alarm` is sent. Then it starts the alarm, calls the goal
_Goal_, and disables the alarm on success or failure.

/** @pred on_signal(+ _Signal_,? _OldAction_,+ _Callable_)
Set the interrupt handler for soft interrupt _Signal_ to be
_Callable_. _OldAction_ is unified with the previous handler.
Only a subset of the software interrupts (signals) can have their
handlers manipulated through on_signal/3.
Their POSIX names, YAP names and default behavior is given below.
The "YAP name" of the signal is the atom that is associated with
each signal, and should be used as the first argument to
on_signal/3. It is chosen so that it matches the signal's POSIX
name.
on_signal/3 succeeds, unless when called with an invalid
signal name or one that is not supported on this platform. No checks
are made on the handler provided by the user.
+ sig_up (Hangup)
SIGHUP in Unix/Linux; Reconsult the initialization files
~/.yaprc, ~/.prologrc and ~/prolog.ini.
+ sig_usr1 and sig_usr2 (User signals)
SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2 in Unix/Linux; Print a message and halt.
A special case is made, where if _Callable_ is bound to
`default`, then the default handler is restored for that signal.
A call in the form `on_signal( _S_, _H_, _H_)` can be used
to retrieve a signal's current handler without changing it.
It must be noted that although a signal can be received at all times,
the handler is not executed while YAP is waiting for a query at the
prompt. The signal will be, however, registered and dealt with as soon
as the user makes a query.
Please also note, that neither POSIX Operating Systems nor YAP guarantee
that the order of delivery and handling is going to correspond with the
order of dispatch.
