# Parallel::TaskExecutor

Cross-platform executor for parallel tasks executed in forked processes.

## Summary

This module provides a simple interface to run Perl code in forked processes and

receive the result of their processing. This is quite similar to

[Parallel::ForkManager](https://metacpan.org/pod/Parallel::ForkManager) with a

different OO approach, more centered on the task object that can be seen as a

very lightweight promise.

## Example

```perl

my $executor = Parallel::TaskExecutor->new();

my $task = $executor->run(sub { return 'foo' });

$task->wait();

is($task->data(), 'foo');

```
