Re: How do I get output and return code, and time-out the process under Win 32?

[Anonymous Monk]

I managed to get it working myself, using something like the following code:

open ERROR, ">stderr.txt" or die $!;
open OUTPUT, ">stdout.txt" or die $!;

open SAVEERR, '>&STDERR' or die $!;
open SAVEOUT, '>&STDOUT' or die $!;

STDERR -> fdopen (\*ERROR, "w")  or die $!;
STDOUT -> fdopen (\*OUTPUT, "w")  or die $!;

$create = Win32::Process::Create($processObj, "program.exe", "-args", 
+1, NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS, ".");

if ($create != 0)
{
    if ($processObj->Wait(60000))
    {
        $processObj->GetExitCode($result);
    }
    else
    {
        $processObj->Kill(999);
    }
}
