Hi,

I'm trying to use Boost 1.65.1's boost::process::child in a Windows
console program.

At the moment, the child process is launched in the same console window
as the parent.

Is there an option to make a new console window for the child?

The pre-boost-incorporation version of boost::process seemed to allow
manipulation of the startupInfo struct directly (e.g.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43582022/boostprocess-hide-console-on-windows/43583001)
and then a win32_launch call. But this seems to have been removed now?

Any tips gratefully received.

Thanks,

Chris.
