How do I run a perl program from a perl program? I could use the back quote (grave) I suppose. I could also use "system". Is there a better way that does not create an additional process? [...]
If I were you I'd go ahead an create additional processes, but the threads module seems to allow for what you're trying to do. However, once your program has gotten memory from the O/S, there's no portable way for it to return that memory to the O/S. If you use a separate process, when the process exits, it's memory is returned to the O/S. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
