Catalyst::Restarter::Win32 - Uses Proc::Background to manage process restarts

DESCRIPTION

Top

This class uses Proc::Background, which in turn uses Win32::Process. The new process is run using the same command-line as the original script, but without any restart-based options.

This is a big hack, but using forks just does not work on Windows.
