i have a subroutine of creating named pipe i run that in background and i intiate a process that connects to the pipe created in background by thread..but i have a problem in retriving the information written by process outside the thread ..

sub pipe
        {
            my $pipename = "pipe1";                     #subroutine to
+ create pipe,aiting to connect and reading from it
            print $pipename."\n";
            my $pipe = new Win32::Pipe($pipename);
            
            if (! $pipe) 
                {
                die "Cannot create named pipe\n";
                }
                
            print "pipe created\n";
            $pipe->ResizeBuffer (10);
            print "waiting for the client to connect\n";
            
            $pipe->Connect();
             
            my $b = 0;
            
            while (($b = $pipe->Read())) 
                {
                chomp $b;
                 $data= $b;
                }
        

            $pipe->Disconnect();
            print "pipe disconnected\n";
            
            $pipe->Close();
            print "pipe closed\n";
            
            return $data;
            
        }    
  
            my $thread = new Thread \&pipe;
    
            my $status_deployment = system ("cmd.exe /c $command_deplo
+y");  
            print"$data";            #executing deployement
            return $status_deployment,$data;
