Subject: Forking
Hello Perl World (Window XP, Activestate 5.6)
I need to either fork a child process or issue a background process and immediate return to the calling parent process without waiting for the child/background process to complete.
All of the Perl References (socket,fork,pipes,system) indicates that the parent waits until the child process is done. I don't want to wait, I just want to kick the child off and exit.
Any suggestion?
Dan
