Re: Parallel processing on Windows

If you really intend to use 'cores' you may want to investigate the modules "Many-Core Engine" MCE and its friends. My own experience is limited to running a few examples on windows 7. The application that I had in mind requires Tk which is not compatible with MCE.

Hello BillKSmith, > The application that I had in mind requires Tk which is not compatible with MCE this is not entirely true: see Re: Perl Tk and Threads by master zentara: > 1. The thread must be created before any Tk widgets are invoked... > 2. Do not put any Tk code into the thread, and do not try to access Tk widgets from the thread. Use shared variables to communicate with the main thread, and have a timer or fileevent in the main Tk thread, read from the thread. See also Re^3: Parallel download Tk where choroba points to his fully threaded Tk application, which is able to use different threading machanisms on windows, MCE among them.

Thanks for the correction. It appears that I may have given up to soon. Bill	[reply]
