Re^4: HPUX corruption of file handle after forkby Abe (Acolyte) |

Aha - so it's not the perl version but it's probably perl on HPUX. I'm not into this enough to look at perl source code, but I find it hard to imagine it's got something special about the way it calls close() for HPUX. H'm. To me it means I have to be careful with explicitly opened files when calling fork(). perl open() is probably safe. If you find out more do let me know, but I'm willing to use fork() now, just I know what to expect. Thanks - Abe
