Hey thanks for the reply. Things working slowly and steadily.I was
able to successfully run many instances of notepad.exe
simultaneously.However i am still not able to execute some exe's like
firefox.exe , wmplayer.exe , googletalk.exe etc.
I am using the following :-
$proc1 = Proc::Background->new("notepad.exe"); #
Working fine..!!
$proc2 = Proc::Background->new("taskmgr.exe"); #
Working fine..!!
$proc3 = Proc::Background->new("notepad.exe"); #
Working fine..!! 2nd instance
$proc4 = Proc::Background->new("cmd.exe"); #
Not working
$proc5 = Proc::Background-
>new("firefox.exe");
# Not working
$proc6 = Proc::Background->new("C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
\firefox.exe"); # Not working
$proc6 = Proc::Background-
>new("googletalk.exe");
# Not working
$proc7 = Proc::Background->new("C:\Program Files\Google\Google Talk
\googletalk.exe)" # Not working
$proc8 = Proc::Background->new("explorer.exe"); #
Working ..!!
