# Parallel::ForkManager::Child - phpMan

## NAME
    [Parallel::ForkManager::Child] - role adopted by forked
    [Parallel::ForkManager] processes

## VERSION
    version 2.02

## SYNOPSIS
       use 5.10.0;

       use [Parallel::ForkManager];

       my $fm = [Parallel::ForkManager]->new;

       say "parent does not consume the child role: ", $fm->does('[Parallel::ForkManager::Child]');

       $fm->start_child(sub{
            sleep $_;
            say "but the child does: ", $fm->does('[Parallel::ForkManager::Child]');
            say "child $_ says hi!"

       }) for 1..3;

## DESCRIPTION
    When the parent [Parallel::ForkManager] object forks a child process, its
    forked incarnation consumes this role. The role doesn't do much: it
    changes the returning values of "is_child" and "is_parent" in the way
    you'd expect, change "start" so that it'd die if called from within the
    child, and change the implementation of "finish" to potentially send
    data back to the parent process.
