| Subject: | Can't disable backgrounding from the command line |
When deciding to background the process or not, Net::Server checks if the background property
is defined. However, there is no way to undefine something on the command line. If your
server has a default setting of backgrounding, you can't force it to the foreground at the
command line.
Testing background for truth lets you do './server.pl background=0'. The attached patch has
the change.
