Jst a couple of thoughts - I don't have time to test any of this out at the
moment.
What happens if you launch the script using the wperl executable instead of
the perl executable ?
Have you checked the various flags constants ? From the docs:
------------------------------------------
EXPORTS
The following constants are exported by default:
CREATE_DEFAULT_ERROR_MODE
CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE
CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP
CREATE_NO_WINDOW
CREATE_SEPARATE_WOW_VDM
CREATE_SUSPENDED
CREATE_UNICODE_ENVIRONMENT
DEBUG_ONLY_THIS_PROCESS
DEBUG_PROCESS
DETACHED_PROCESS
HIGH_PRIORITY_CLASS
IDLE_PRIORITY_CLASS
INFINITE
NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS
REALTIME_PRIORITY_CLASS
THREAD_PRIORITY_ABOVE_NORMAL
THREAD_PRIORITY_BELOW_NORMAL
THREAD_PRIORITY_ERROR_RETURN
THREAD_PRIORITY_HIGHEST
THREAD_PRIORITY_IDLE
THREAD_PRIORITY_LOWEST
THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL
THREAD_PRIORITY_TIME_CRITICAL
The following additional constants are exported by request only:
STILL_ACTIVE
------------------------------------------
I was thinking specifically of CREATE_NO_WINDOW constant (but perhaps that
does something else).
Cheers,
Rob
