NAME

Process::SubProcess - Library to manage Sub Processes as Objects

DESCRIPTION

Process::SubProcess implements a Class to manage a Sub Process and read its Output and Errors

The Idea of this API is to launch Sub Processes and keep track of all Output on STDOUT, STDERR, the EXIT CODE and possible System Errors at Launch Time in an object oriented manner. This allows an easy aggregation and thus the creation of Sub Process Groups and Sub Process Pools for simultaneous execution of multiple Sub Processes while keeping the execution logs separated.
