Windows & IPC -- request for commentsby rkg (Hermit) |

rkg has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hi -- I've never used Perl for anything pipe-like before. The following is my attempt, running on Activestate 5.8.0 on WinXP. The code below is a framework, not my full-blown module. I found the perl docs hard to understand for IPC::Open3. The following rough hackish code works but I'd like any comments on how I could be doing it better. Should I be checking that the pipe opened? If so how? Should I have error checking elsewhere? Should I be closing the pipe gracefully, rather than killing it? And am I killing it correctly? Thanks for helping me learn-- rkg
