Hi all ,
I have a perl/java app running under Win32. The application consists of a perl service (Win32::Daemon) and of java classes. The perl service calls every xx hours java classes to perform some action.
The java call looks like this: -
Win32::SetChildShowWindow(0);
-
-
Win32::Process::Create(
-
$ProcessObj,
-
$javaExe,
-
$commandArgs,
-
0,
-
Win32::Process::NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS|Win32::Process::CREATE_NO_WINDOW,
-
$installPath
-
) or $retCode = -9;
-
The point of SetChildShowWin dow(0) and CREATE_NO_WINDO W is to hide the console window that perl usually displays when creating new process.
This worked fine until I tried to run the same code inside a thread.
I now have a perl module JavaCall.pm with "static" subs calling the java classes.
My perl service starts a thread each time it needs to call java (if the java process is not started inside a thread, the perl service does not get the shutdown event until the java process finishes).
So I have something like this:
perlservice.pl: -
sub Callback_Running {
-
$runningThread = threads->new(\&startProcess, $installPath, $executePath, $configFile, $parser, $logger, $configref, $Context);
-
$runningThread->detach();
-
}
-
-
sub startProcess {
-
JavaCall->callJavaClass(...);
-
}
-
JavaCall.pm: -
Win32::SetChildShowWindow(0);
-
Win32::Process::Create(
-
$ProcessObj,
-
$javaExe,
-
$commandArgs,
-
0,
-
Win32::Process::NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS|Win32::Process::CREATE_NO_WINDOW,
-
$installPath
-
) or $retCode = -9;
-
And here is the mistery: This works perfect under my Windows XP SP2 Profesional Edition, English. But the console "cmd.exe" shows up on a Windows XP SP2 Home Edition, French.
I do not know yet if this problem is specific to Home or French edition.
This app is distributed on users PC and I cannot have that window showing up.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Hallo everyone,
After playing around with 'fork' in order to try to get a one process to monitor another, I have changed my tack and switched to Win32::Process. Indeed, it looks like this function will be able to do what I require:
A: Start a windows application
B: While that application is running regularly monitor a log file
C: If the windows application falls over or locks up, then the monitor process will kill the job and close the...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
