Hello Monks,

I am trying to debug an exe using GDB debugger and using perl thread for it. I have attached a thread to the gdbserver and the exe is attached to the gdbserver as shown. 

$self_ph->{GDBSERVERTHREAD} = threads::async{
          $gdbserver_path :6000 $Exe_path 1> NUL 2> NUL` ;
          threads->exit();
    };
$self_ph->{IN_QUEUE} = new Thread::Queue;

Everything works fine but in my kill module the exe does not terminate and the join function is executed the control does not return. Is there something that I am missing? 

`taskkill /F /IM My_Exe.exe`;
 $self_ph->{GDBSERVERTHREAD}->join();
 $self_ph->{GDBSERVERTHREAD} = undef;

In reply to join() in perl threads does not return by Mj1234
