Hello, Phy,

Maybe I have missed something, but couldn’t you just put the entire
process in the background instead of forking it?

Something like:
jruby scaleMatrix.rb &

or doing it with nohup?

Cheers,
Chiaming H.

Jacob,

That’s a good idea and in fact, I have tried unsuccessfully to have an
external jruby wrapper invoke the scaleMatrix jruby script, but I run
into the same problem.

Perhaps you are suggesting that I use a different language to accomplish
this? I am on the thought of writing a simple c app to setsid on the
process, but was hoping this could all be done in ruby/jruby (well ruby
actually does work).

Any thoughts?

Chiaming,

You know what, you are absolutely right! I had thought that nohup-ing
would not detach it from the controlling process, but I just tested and
sure enough, I can log out and still the process runs. Too simple. So
thanks for pointing out the obvious!

Cheers,
Phy
