pid_type
// In header: <boost/process/pid_type.hpp> typedef NativeProcessId pid_type;
Opaque name for the process identifier type.
Each operating system identifies processes using a specific type. The pid_type type is used to transparently refer to a process regardless of the operating system.
This type is guaranteed to be an integral type on all supported platforms. On POSIX systems it is defined as pid_t, on Windows systems as DWORD.
