Spawn for Legacy
Kernel.spawn in ruby 1.9 solves all issues on asynchronous executions[1][2].
But ruby 1.8, the legacy version of MRI, is still used on many environments.
This library provides spawn() which is almost perfectly compatible with ruby 1.9's.
This library is pure ruby; you don't need to build it.
Install
gem install sfl
How to use
require 'rubygems'
require 'sfl'
spawn 'ls'
If your ruby is 1.9, require 'sfl' doesn't do anything. If your ruby is 1.8, that defines spawn.
How compatible this spawn is?
(I'll put the coverage here later)
Misc.
- At first I tried to use the name
spawnas this gem library name, but the name was already used. Thespawngem library does not mean ruby 1.9'sspawnat all. - Ruby 1.9's
open3library, based onspawn, is very useful. I would like to portopen3to ruby 1.8 in my future.
Supports
- (On MacOS) MRI 1.8.6, 1.8.7, 1.9.1, 1.9.2-rc2
- (On UNIX) MRI 1.8.6, 1.8.7, 1.9.1, 1.9.2pre
- (On Windows) MRI 1.9.1, 1.9.2pre
Currently there are no supports on:
- MRI 1.8 on Windows
- Other Ruby implementations such as JRuby, Rubinius and MacRuby
