=head1 NAME

AnyEvent::Subprocess - flexible, OO, asynchronous process spawning and management

=head1 VERSION

version 1.102912

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use AnyEvent::Subprocess;

    # prepare the job

lib/AnyEvent/Subprocess.pm  view on Meta::CPAN

You can then build upon this; instead of writing your own code to
reading the handles when they become readable and accumulate input,
you can write a delegate that saves all the data coming from a given
handle and gives it to your program after the child exits (via the
C<Done> instance).

(This is also included via the C<CaptureHandle> delegate.  See
L<AnyEvent::Subprocess::Job::Delegate::CaptureHandle>.)

All of this integrates into your existing event-based app; waiting for
IO from the child (or waiting for the child to exit) is asynchronous,
and lets your app do other work while waiting for the child.  (It can
integrate nicely into Coro, for example, unlike the default C<qx//>.)

=head1 BUGS

The parent's event loop still exists in the child process, which means
you can't safely use it in the child.  I have tried to work around
this in a few event loops; my C<AnyEventX::Cancel> module on github is
an early attempt.  When that becomes stable, I will remove this
restriction.
