pce->die

pce ->die: status=[int]

Exit from the combined PCE/{Prolog,Lisp,...} process indicating status. It performs the following steps:

Request the host language to exit. This is done using the C-interface call hostAction(HOST_HALT). With a completely implemented interface, this in return will call PCE's cleanup functions registered with hostAction(HOST_ONHALT) and terminate the process.
If the host refuses to kill the process, PCE itself will call its registered cleanup functions and call exit() with the argument status.
With a proper implemented interface, the normal termination will execute the pce<-exit_messages, kill possible subprocesses and terminate the process. The termination process is the same regardless of whether the host-language terminate functions is called or pce->die is invoked.

Defaults: The default termination status is 0 (indicating success).
