# Module to manage standard C signals
+#
+# Common usage imply 5 steps:
+#
+# 1. Implement the `SignalHandler` interface
+# 2. `redef receive_signal_unsafe` to handle `sigsegv`
+# 3. `redef receive_signal` to handle other signals safely
+# 4, Notify what signals to handle with `handle_signal`
+# 5. If using the safe handler method, routinely call `check_signals`
+#
+# Usage example:
+#
+# ~~~~
+# class MyReceiver
+# super SignalHandler
+#
+# redef fun receive_signal(signal)
+# do
+# print "received safely {signal}"
+# if signal == sigalarm then print "Alarm!"
+# end
+# redef fun receive_signal_unsafe( signal ) do print "received unsafely {signal}"
+# end
+#
+# var r = new MyReceiver
+#
+# # Handle `sigsegv` signal unsafely (the only way for this one)
+# r.handle_signal(sigsegv, false)
+#
+# # Handle `sigint` and `sigalarm` safely
+# r.handle_signal(sigint, true)
+# r.handle_signal(sigalarm, true)
+#
+# # Ask system to receive a `sigalarm` signal in 1 second
+# set_alarm(1)
+#
+# loop
+# # Check signals and callback `receive_signal`
+# var hit = check_signals
+#
+# if hit then break
+# end
+# ~~~~

+ This guard prevents errors by the C compiler when the Nit code imports this
+ module but do not use handle_signal. When it is _not_ used, the C type
+ SignalHandler and C function SignalHandler_receive_signal are not generated.
+ Which does not please the C compiler. This guard ensure that we compile this
+ code only if the type SignalHandler has been defined.
+
+ This is a HACK, FIXME by:
+ * Adding the macro to the FFI spec, or
+ * Attach the callbacks to this code block (or the module itself)
+ * Avoid using Nit types and callbacks or use them only in the C implementation
