From: Jim Freeze Date: 2002-07-19T10:53:00+09:00 Subject: thread, fork, wait and popen3 Hi: I am looking for some hints, or possible a snippet of code that will solve a little task I am working on. I would like to launch multiple tasks to a load balancer, and have the main script wait until they are all complete. I don't think this part is too hard. If that is not too much trouble, I would like to be able to identify each task as it completes. The icing on the cake is that I want to call each process via popen3 so I can control what is sent to the std ports. Thanks for any help. -- Jim Freeze If only I had something clever to say for my comment... ~
