Note that this argument is recognized only if it is strictly numerical. You can use either one of the process modes: P_WAIT (0) = wait until child terminates (default) P_NOWAIT = do not wait until child terminates P_SESSION = new session P_DETACH = detached P_PM = PM program and optionally add PM and session option bits: P_DEFAULT (0) = default P_MINIMIZE = minimized P_MAXIMIZE = maximized P_FULLSCREEN = fullscreen (session only) P_WINDOWED = windowed (session only) P_FOREGROUND = foreground (if running in foreground) P_BACKGROUND = background P_NOCLOSE = don't close window on exit (session only) P_QUOTE = quote all arguments P_TILDE = MKS argument passing convention P_UNRELATED = do not kill child when father terminates =head2 Access to process properties Additionaly, subroutines my_type(), process_entry() and C, get_title() and C are implemented. my_type() returns the type of the current process (one of "FS", "DOS", "VIO", "PM", "DETACH" and "UNKNOWN"), or C on error. =over =item C returns the type of the executable file C, or dies on error. The bits 0-2 of the result contain one of the values =over =item C (0) Application type is not specified in the executable header. =item C (1) Application type is not-window-compatible. =item C (2) Application type is window-compatible. =item C (3) Application type is window-API. =back The remaining bits should be masked with the following values to determine the type of the executable: =over =item C (8) Set to 1 if the executable file has been "bound" (by the BIND command) as a Family API application. Bits 0, 1, and 2 still apply. =item C (0x10) Set to 1 if the executable file is a dynamic link library (DLL) module. Bits 0, 1, 2, 3, and 5 will be set to 0. =item C (0x20) Set to 1 if the executable file is in PC/DOS format. Bits 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 will be set to 0. =item C (0x40) Set to 1 if the executable file is a physical device driver. =item C (0x80) Set to 1 if the executable file is a virtual device driver. =item C (0x100) Set to 1 if the executable file is a protected-memory dynamic link library module. =item C (0x4000) Set to 1 for 32-bit executable files. =back file_type() may croak with one of the strings C<"Invalid EXE signature"> or C<"EXE marked invalid"> to indicate typical error conditions. If given non-absolute path, will look on C, will add extention F<.exe> if no extension is present (add extension F<.> to suppress). =item process_entry() returns a list of the following data: =over =item Title of the process (in the C list); =item window handle of switch entry of the process (in the C list); =item window handle of the icon of the process; =item process handle of the owner of the entry in C list; =item process id of the owner of the entry in C list; =item session id of the owner of the entry in C list; =item whether visible in C list; =item whether item cannot be switched to (note that it is not actually grayed in the C list)); =item whether participates in jump sequence; =item program type. Possible values are: PROG_DEFAULT 0 PROG_FULLSCREEN 1 PROG_WINDOWABLEVIO 2 PROG_PM 3 PROG_VDM 4 PROG_WINDOWEDVDM 7 Although there are several other program types for WIN-OS/2 programs, these do not show up in this field. Instead, the PROG_VDM or PROG_WINDOWEDVDM program types are used. For instance, for PROG_31_STDSEAMLESSVDM, PROG_WINDOWEDVDM is used. This is because all the WIN-OS/2 programs run in DOS sessions. For example, if a program is a windowed WIN-OS/2 program, it runs in a PROG_WINDOWEDVDM session. Likewise, if it's a full-screen WIN-OS/2 program, it runs in a PROG_VDM session. =back =item C - does not work with some windows (if the title is set from the start). This is a limitation of OS/2, in such a case $^E is set to 372 (type help 372 for a funny - and wrong - explanation ;-). =item get_title() is a shortcut implemented via process_entry(). =back =head1 AUTHOR Andreas Kaiser , Ilya Zakharevich . =head1 SEE ALSO C() system calls. =cut
