Re: Win32::Process not waiting

My Perl parent keeps processing

That's odd, since there's nothing after the Wait. How can you even tell?

Thanks. My comment "# more code" was intended to show that there was additional stuff there but not included.	[reply]

Please don't show us one program and talk about another. What problem does the program you posted exhibit?	[reply]

Not sure what you mean. The problem of Win32::Process not waiting is shown in the code I posted. The problem is that $ProcessObj->Wait(INFINITE) is NOT waiting, but going on to other code that I didn't show because it isn't relevant. Thanks!	[reply]

I just had another thought, rereading your replies. Maybe my misunderstanding is even worse than I thought. Isn't the parent program supposed to wait at $ProcessObj->Wait(INFINITE)? In other words, whatever happens after that line should wait until the child finishes. Is that right? If I'm wrong about that, it would explain my confusion!	[reply]
