Re^2: Monitoring a process

*I* would do that as something like $retval = `ps ax`;

Well, seeing as he's prolly on a Win32 box because he mentions "Also, any inputs for writing windows services in perl will be a great help." sort of leaves ps ax out don't you think?

That was foolish on part of me, not to mention the platform. I apologize for the error and appreciate the wisdom shown by you monks. Now I realize that Perl not just a language. It is a way of life. Having said that, "Can I use perl for embedded application?" I mean I am asking from efficiency point of you. While debugging application I find that "this" pointer thing is present in Perl also. But one thing surprised me, Virtual function. In C++ there is a particular situation where we have to think about Virtual Function, while in Perl I am in dark about it. Can you guys refer me to some links which tells me in structures manner about Virtual Table and Virtual Pointer in Perl , so that I can look forward perl as a language to implement COM classes. cheers Rock	[reply]
