NAME SHARYANTO::Proc::Util - OS-process-related routines VERSION version 0.60 SYNOPSIS FUNCTIONS None are exported by default, but they are exportable. get_parent_processes($pid[, \%opts]) => ARRAY Return an array containing information about parent processes of $pid up to the parent of all processes (usually "init"). If $pid is not mentioned, it defaults to $$. The immediate parent is in the first element of array, followed by its parent, and so on. For example: [{name=>"perl",pid=>13134}, {name=>"konsole",pid=>2232}, {name=>"init",pid=>1}] Currently retrieves information by calling pstree program. Return undef on failure. Known options: * method => STR (default: "proctable") Either "proctable" (the default, which means to use Proc::ProcessTable) or "pstree" (which uses the pstree command, which might not be portable between Unices). SEE ALSO SHARYANTO Proc::ProcessTable. Pros: does not depend on pstree command, process names not truncated by pstree. Cons: a little bit more heavyweight (uses File::Spec, Cwd, File::Find).
