Target version changed from 2.1.0 to current: 2.2.0 ---------------------------------------- Feature #8981: Suggestion for CreateProcess flags with rubyw on windows https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8981#change-44804 * Author: James French * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: cruby-windows * Category: platform/windows * Target version: current: 2.2.0 ---------------------------------------- Hi, I've spent some time looking into the feasibility of using rubyw in my code and at first glance it looks ideal. However there are a lot of console windows flashing up when I run external processes using Open3::popen3 (because I want to capture their stdout and stderr). I believe that creating a process without CREATE_NO_WINDOW in rubyw is a bug, as the whole point of rubyw is that it doesn't pop up a console. If there is agreement I'm happy to file a bug report/submit a patch. Cheers, James -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
