empty process title until one is set #1

Closed ekle closed 10 years ago

hi, if you include this package, the gspt.init() clears the process-title. so the process title is empty till the program calls gspt.SetProcTitle.

example: package main import ( "time" "github.com/ErikDubbelboer/gspt" ) func main() { time.Sleep(10000 * time.Millisecond) gspt.SetProcTitle("new title") // till this line ps shows an empty title time.Sleep(10000 * time.Millisecond) }

This should be fixed in the new version.

hi, thanks for the fast fix but this way we loose any args of the the process in /proc/$pid/cmdline. SetProcTitle(strings.Join(os.Args, " ")); should be able to solve this. but wouldn't it be cleaner to make a copy of the cmdline before it is cleaned and then reset it to this value ?
