What about supporting environment variables specific to the child process? This is necessary for distinct environments between different subprocesses and the parent. This could be done by prepending the command with 'env' but it'll be much nicer to take a map<string, string> of environment variables and setenv them after the fork. Along the same lines, what about optionally taking a user and working directory? - Ian Downes On Jan. 24, 2014, 7:06 a.m., Ben Mahler wrote: > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > This is an automatically generated e-mail.
