non blocking pipe
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,
$smwID = open( STREAM, $command . '|');
Glib::Timeout-add(100,
sub {
if($line = nonblocking_read(STREAM)
{
# process the line only if the program send
something,
# if i use a blocking reading like $line=STREAM ;
# the entry gui will get blocked until the output
come
}
}
);

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.
