The libModglue library is a C++ library with classes for forking external
|
|
processes and asynchronous reading from streams. It takes away the burden
|
|
of all subtleties involving the Unix fork call. The asynchronous read
|
|
facility enables one to read on multiple input streams at the same time,
|
|
without losing any of the standard C++ stream facilities.
|
|
There are also several small additional programs bundled with modglue,
|
|
such as a program to add readline capability to any command line program.
|
|
Moreover, the modglue library extends the idea of standard Unix pipes by
|
|
providing a general framework for the creation of new processes with more
|
|
than just the standard stdin/stdout/stderr pipes.
