- As this is the only Windows group I have access to - I hope I can get
- my question answered!
-
- I am using BC++ 3.0 and trying to write a simple program to generate a
- dialog box with radio buttons which in turn select an application to
- execute. I am finding that there is no spawn...(), exec...(), or
- fork() functions useable under Windows! Or am I simply missing
- something in the DOCS! I would find it VERY hard to believe that
- Windows does not support child processes (not only that plenty of
- other Windows apps do -- but also that it is a pseudo-multitasking
- environment).
-
- Do any programmers out there know the implementation of child
- processes under windows. Thanks
- Cheers
