# Test2::Harness::IPC::Process(3pm)

Base class for processes controlled by Test2::Harness::IPC.

## NAME

Test2::Harness::IPC::Process - Base class for processes controlled by Test2::Harness::IPC.

## DESCRIPTION

All processes controlled by Test2::Harness::IPC should subclass this one.

## ATTRIBUTES

- $int = $proc-\>exit

  Exit value, if set. Otherwise `"undef"`.

- $stamp = $proc-\>exit\_time

  Timestamp of the process exit, if set, otherwise `"undef"`.

- $pid = $proc-\>pid

  Pid of the process, if it has been started.

- $cat = $proc-\>category

  Set at construction, `'default'` if not provided.

## METHODS

- $opt-\>set\_pid($pid)

  Set the process id.

- $opt-\>set\_exit($ipc, $exit, $time)

  Set the process as complete. `$exit` should be the exit value. `$time` should be a timestamp. `$ipc` is an instance of Test2::Harness::IPC.

- $hashref = $opt-\>**spawn\_params()**

  Used when spawning the process, args go to `run_cmd()` from Test2::Harness::Util::IPC.

  The base class throws an exception if this method is called.
