Hi lavascript,
thanks for your inputs.
what i observed is this behaviour is not consistent.
Initially i used to execute my C++ exe file without nohup. I used to run it as a background process..
Now i changd it to nohup... then i observed this problem.
But today when i executed it again, there is no problem.. with my existing logic itself, i got the correct pids..
Not sure what is the problem.
Anyway, to be on safer side, i will go with ur suggestion.
Thanks again

NOHUP(1) User Commands NOHUP(1)
NAME
nohup - run a command immune to hangups, with output to a non-tty
SYNOPSIS
nohup COMMAND [ARG]...
nohup OPTION
DESCRIPTION
Run COMMAND, ignoring hangup signals.
--help display this help and exit
--version
output version information and exit
If standard input is a terminal, redirect it from an unreadable file. If standard output is a terminal, append output to 'nohup.out' if
possible, '$HOME/nohup.out' otherwise. If standard error is a terminal, redirect it to standard output. To save output to FILE, use
'nohup COMMAND > FILE'.
NOTE: your shell may have its own version of nohup, which usually supersedes the version described here. Please refer to your shell's doc-
umentation for details about the options it supports.
