I should write a perl script(feat.pl), which will call a python script. I am opening the python script as a pipe command since the python script is an interactive process. After I give an input to the python script, the python script its job and I should validate if the job is executed correctly in perl script. But, before input is going to the python script, control is going to validation part My script is as below:

    #!/usr/bin/perl
    $pythonCmd = "python mobileCom.py v20 /home/omc/python/MCSimu/ior 
+332211000000009001";

    open CMD, |- , $pythonCMD;
    
    print CMD "9\n";

    Validate();

    sub Validate
    {
    print "Inside Validate
    #doing the validation here
    }

The perl script should execute line by line, but control is going to Validate() before passing "9" to the CMD. I understood that is because the python script is executed as a different thread and perl script is executed as a different thread. How can I control the execution of the perl process?

In reply to Threads inside perl script is going out of control by anuani
