Re^2: How to add timer

Thanks for your reply.

But for my case, we are having products. Already it is running by cron for each product.It can run by on-demand as manual for single product. Both are used to create the datewise entry for each product in product based file.

While cron and ondemand are trying to run for same product at same time, the datewise entry gets duplicated two times. Both are independent process. To avoid the duplicate entry,it should not allow to run for same product at same time.

Tried with one common file in which add the entry of product with timestamp once it is started by cron or ondemand. That should be update every one hour until it is stopped. I written as subroutine.

How to make that subroutine to run without disturbing other functions of same module until it is stopped?

Thanks for your reply. Example, having timer subroutine as timerProducts($pdt) Calling like, `sub start(){ &timerProducts($pdt) print "test one" callpdt($pdt); }` [download] Once called timerProducts, it should paralelly print the message "test one" and then call the subroutine callpdt. But it is not happened.It is executing only timerProducts. It is not allowed to run the callpdt subroutine.	[reply] [d/l]
