Database handle to a child script using exec
Hello,
Can I pass a database handle created in parent script to a child script triggered using exec ??
Parent script
=========
$dbh =DBI->connect{......); # Db handle creation
$param1 =10; # parameter one
exec "childscript.pl $param1 $dbh "; # executing childscript.pl with two parameters $param and database handle
Is this possible ??
Please advice.
