sounds like a simple Component wrapper - POE::Component::Child::Simple or something your description of what you want is nearly pseudo code
you might want to look into PoCo::Child or the likes, I personally havent used them so I dont know anything about them. On 1/20/07, Kevin Scaldeferri <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Yes, but you can't just provide a CloseEvent to Wheel::Run, and the arguments that CloseEvent are called with do not include any of the output of the program. What I'm talking about is basically having a StdoutEvent that concatenates all the output and stores it in the heap, and a StderrEvent that does something similar, and then a CloseEvent that reads that stuff out of the heap and processes it. But, I'd rather not have all my users have to do that, so what I'm looking for is a simplified API that hides all that. It doesn't seem that hard to do, but I can't find anything published on CPAN that does it. -kevin On Jan 19, 2007, at 11:02 PM, Matt Sickler wrote: > I believe you can use Wheel::Run and theres a CloseEvent or the like > > On 1/20/07, Kevin Scaldeferri <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >> I figure I can write this myself easily enough, but I'm wondering if >> there's a module already for this task.
