Hmm that might be true. As Elian and BrowserUK pointed out, it seems like what I proposed was a bad idea. Ok, this is my problem.
My perl program wants to access some data from an external program, B. In order to do so, I need to first run another external program, A, which is required for me to interact with B. A never dies. It continuously runs forever. So it seems like I cannot call: system(A); system(B); otherwise it'll hang on system(A). And it seems like creating 2 separate threads for both A and B and having a successful completion of B kill off A is also not good. Can someone suggest a third alternative to this problem? Thanks! coldfate In reply to Re^2: Threads: How to kill a thread manually?
