The Proc::Simple package provides objects that model real-
|
||
|
life processes from a user's point of view. A new process
|
||
|
object is created by
|
||
|
|
||
|
$myproc = Proc::Simple->new();
|
||
|
|
||
|
Either shell-like command lines or references to perl
|
||
|
subroutines can be specified for launching a process in
|
||
|
background. A 10-second sleep process, for example, can
|
||
|
be started via the shell as
|
||
|
|
||
|
$myproc->start("sleep 10");
|
||
|
|
||
|
or, as a perl subroutine, with
|
||
|
|
||
|
$myproc->start(sub { sleep(10); });
