method close-stdin
Documentation for method close-stdin
assembled from the following types:
class Proc::Async
From Proc::Async
(Proc::Async) method close-stdin
method close-stdin(Proc::Async: --> True)
Closes the standard input stream of the external program. Programs that read from STDIN often only terminate when their input stream is closed. So if waiting for the promise from method start hangs (for a program opened for writing), it might be a forgotten close-stdin
.
The Proc::Async
object must be created for writing (with Proc::Async.new(:w, $path, @args)
). Otherwise an X::Proc::Async::OpenForWriting exception will the thrown.
start
must have been called before calling method close-stdin, otherwise an X::Proc::Async::MustBeStarted exception is thrown.
