Asp Forum - create delay loop in ruby?

Xx Xx

12/18/2008 2:35:00 PM

i am trying to run an executable file(say a.exe) which will produce a
a.log once finish.so i create the algo below to analyze the log file.

if(a.exe exist)
execute a.exe

if(a.log exist)
analyze a.log
end
end

but, my thinking is the checking for a.log exist will be done way before
the a.exe is finished.

any workaround for my problem? i was thinking of using a delay(if can)
though it is not so reliable....

Just invoke the process synchronously, e.g. via "system".

MOSCOW, December 22 (RIA Novosti) - Chemical weapons are under the
control of the Syrian government, which has consolidated them in one
or two locations, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on
Saturday.

“As of right now… the [Syrian] government is doing all it can to
safeguard those weapons,” he said.

Syria has consolidated its chemical weapons stocks in one or two
locations as rebels make advances in several parts on the country,
said Russia's foreign minister.

Sergei Lavrov said Russia, which reportedly has military advisers
training Syria's military, has kept close watch over its chemical
arsenal.

He said the Syrian government had transferred weapons from several
arsenals to just "one or two centres" to properly safeguard them.
Israeli officials have also said that Syrian chemical weapons were
under control
