I start an asynchronous process using LinkImage from my IDL interface.
I want to be able to find out when that process finishes. Is there
a way to have this child process tell my IDL program when it finishes?
The bad news is that this must run under UNIX platforms as well as
Microsoft 95/NT.
I can use the polling method under IDL by setting a timer and looking
to see if the child process is still running but if I have a bunch
then my system performance can degraded with a bunch of timer events
going off. I can't find any good information on using singals and
am not sure if it would even work.
Help?
Thanks,
Rich
