ipcBeginProcess

Hi 

I am running 

cid = ipcBeginProcess("/afs/btv/data/asicCDK/tools/test/noarch/bin/runCalibreDRC outputFile")  

this runs calibreDRC using the controlfile.

after this ipc ends i need to execute the next step  

if(ipcIsAliveProcess(cid)== nil then
printf("the gds is put in the below path\n /afs/btv.ibm.com/u2/narahish/fx14p/cadence/FILL\n"))

this does not work. i tried ipcWait also . But the next etep is executed before the ipc is completed.

Can i get a help on this.
