SUMMARY

Parallel::Forker is a Perl package to manage parallel processes that are either subroutines or system commands. Parallel::Forker supports being able to specify complicated expressions to determine which processes run after others, or processes that run when processes others fail.

EXAMPLE

use Parallel::Forker;
$Fork = new Parallel::Forker(use_sig_child=>1);
$Fork->schedule
   (run_on_start => sub {print "child work here...";},
    # run_on_start => \&child_subroutine,  # Alternative: call a named sub.
    run_on_finish => sub {print "parent cleanup here...";},
    )->run;
$Fork->wait_all;   # Wait for all children to finish
