I wrote a daemon in C++ which is automatically started on login using a bash script placed in /etc/profile.d/ while running the install section of my makefile. The problem is that when I log out and log back in, there are now two instances of the daemon running.



What I would have liked is for the first one to stop when I logged out, not keep going. It's only meant to run while somebody is logged in, anyhow. How do I make sure my daemon is not still running after I logout?

If you're using D-Bus in your application, you could listen for the SessionOver signal on the org.gnome.SessionManager interface. With C++ Qt5, your code would look something like this:



QDBusConnection dbus = QDBusConnection::sessionBus();

dbus.connect("org.gnome.SessionManager", "",

    "org.gnome.SessionManager", "SessionOver",

    this, SLOT(handle_sessionOver());
