in thread Win32 multiple process and single file redirection

You can try File::Log

With this package, differents process can log in the same file.

  • t1.pl ( launches t2.pl and t3.pl ) :
    use strict ; use warnings ; use Win32::Process ; use File::Log; my $call_hProcess = "" ; my $call_Resultat = 0 ; $call_Resultat = Win32::Process::Create($call_hProcess, "c:/Perl/bin/Perl.exe", "perl t2.pl", 0, IDLE_PRIORITY_CLASS, "." ) ; $call_Resultat = Win32::Process::Create($call_hProcess, "c:/Perl/bin/Perl.exe", "perl t3.pl", 0, IDLE_PRIORITY_CLASS, "." ) ;
  • Here's t2.pl , t3.pl
    use strict ; use warnings ; use File::Log; # Log INFORMATIONAL or worse to a file my $log = File::Log->new({ debug => 4, logFileName => 'app.log', logFileMode => '>>', dateTimeStamp => 0, stderrRedirect => 0, defaultFile => 1, logFileDateTime => 0, appName => 'MyApp', PIDstamp => 1, storeExpText => 0, }); for ( my $i=0; $i <= 50; $i++ ) { sleep 2 ; $log->msg(4, "t2.pl : $i\n"); }
