Hi Nanda,
Thanks for your reply. > > system("perl mycode.pl -email \"$receipt_email\" -type $sometype -unit > $some_unit"); > > But it still cannot work. What I have in mycode.pl looks like this: __BEGIN__ use strict; use Data::Dumper; use Getopt::Long; print Dumper [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; my $type = 'bar'; my $no_unit = 1; my $help = 0; my $tg_email = ''; if ( @ARGV == 0 ) { &usage(); exit(1); } my $res = GetOptions ( "type=s"=>\$type, "unit=i"=>\$no_unit, "email=s"=>\$tg_email, "help"=>\$help,); if ($res) { print "$tg_email\n" # show nothing here. # and do some other thing } __END__ And my actuall system call is this:: __BEGIN__ use Acme::Spork; my $req_id = spork( sub { system("perl compute_price.pl -eml \"$uemail\" -type $ct -unit $nu"); } ) or die qq {Could not fork for spork: $!}; __END__ Any idea? -- Regards, Edward WIJAYA ------------ Institute For Infocomm Research - Disclaimer ------------- This email is confidential and may be privileged.
