Hi, i'm writing a gui tool, I need to open a non blocking pipe in read
mode, to avoid the block of the gui when the stream become slow..
Is it possible to open a non blocking pipe in read mode whitout using
threads or fork()?
I like simple things, i only need something return me undef is there
is no input,
IIUC, it's the read operation, not the open, that is nonblocking. You
might want to look at IO::Select.
And this is OT, since this list is for Perl 6, not Perl 5. (I had
thought I was replying to something on boston-pm. <embarrassed-grin />)
