Problem installing CPAN module

2005-06-22 Thread Sonam Chauhan

... by implication, CW_GETPINFO_FULL does not report on execed processes properly. If this is the case, isn't this a bug in CW_GETPINFO_FULL? Won't it be better fixing this bug, than fixing 'Proc::ProcessTable' and 'ps -W' and all the other programs that uses CW_GETPINFO_FULL?

ss you wrote the Perl XS interface for Proc::ProcessTable (or something similar that controls it's behavior), this does not concern your code which probably behaves just fine. Coming back to actual issue I referenced a discussion earlier on this list where a similar problem was discussed
