sys.get_nusers()

Purpose:

sys.get_nusers() returns the number of 4C proceses currently running.

Usage:

nusers = sys.get_nusers();

Arguments:

None

Returns:

integer <nusers> - The number of 4C processes currently running.

Where Used:

sys.get_nusers() can be called from anywhere. It is used by some of the system configuration/display programs.

Example:

The following code is the Init PCL for sys.ui.display.

maxusers = sys.get_maxusers();
nusers = sys.get_nusers();
sys.create_tfile(sys.usr_info);
for (i = 0; i < maxusers; i += 1) {
    if ((sys.ui_usrname = sys.get_username(i)) == "")
        continue;
    sys.ui_idx = i;
    sys.read_file(sys.usr_info,F_ADD|F_NODEBLOCK);
    sys.ui_ttyname = sys.get_ttyname(i);
    totusrsize += sys.ui_maxumem = sys.get_maxumem(i);
    sys.upd_file(sys.usr_info,F_DEFAULT);
}
sys.ui_usrname = ""; /* clear for drinit */

Description:

sys.get_nusers() returns the number of 4C processes currently running. Each copy of 4C and each 4C utility counts as one process. sys.get_nusers() always returns <= sys.get_maxusers().
