in thread child process termination on Windows

Thanks - but your Wait will block the parent process until the child exits - or does it not?

What I want is a way to have parent and child run concurrently with the parent being informed about the child exit.

    Fair enough, in that case use $ProcessObj->GetExitCode($var) which will return STILL_ACTIVE if it is,um, still active. You will need use Win32::Process qw(STILL_ACTIVE); for that.
