Hi,
I have this process that forks, the child opens up a socket and listens (in
a while loop).
When the child reads something, it calls the appropriate sub to handle the
message (tickPrice for example). Once I'm in tickPrice(), I'd like to send
some data back to the parent.
1) is the a proper use of POE.
I figured I'd use POE::Component::Client::TCP in the child and
POE::Component::Server::TCP in the parent. After looking at the docs for
POE::Component::Client::TCP, and the cookbook. I don't see how I could send
a message back to the parent.
I know there is:
$heap->{server}->put(@things_to_send);
But I don't know how I'd get the value of $heap into my subroutine? Since
there was no POE event.
Thanks
Jay
