Hi,
On Linux and Cygwin, the below demo runs to completion immediately - which is as I expect. But on Win32 (perl-5.10.0), it hangs forever at waitpid $pid, 0; What's the way to have this working correctly on Win32 ? The waitpid documentation states that "waiting for a particular pid with FLAGS of 0 is implemented everywhere". The Net::SSLeay test file t/local/00_ptr_cast.t contains code very much like that (except that $cmd contains something useful) - needless to say, Ctrl-C is the only way to terminate that test script on Win32. Cheers, Rob In reply to waitpid on Win32 ... wait forever by syphilis
