"...whatever it was, it wasn't doing anything useful."

Well, i would say it depends.

It was for learning purposes, a kind of finger exercise.

I didn't mention that i don't have any experience using threads in Perl. My first approach.

I always felt like i'll miss something if i don't go over that next bridge.

My little effort was also inspired by my last thread about P::FM, because that stuff doesn't work on windows. I am sorry that i can't show the error messages, because i don't have a windows box with Perl installed at my disposal tonight.

Also pure curiosity played a role. I have a basic understanding how a counting semaphore works but this stuff is still a kind of magic for me.

And the code i figured out looks very similar to my forking example and doesn't perform so bad.

That's why i couldn't resist.

My very best regards, Karl

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
