I try to implement the Thread::Queue module, but the provided example and the other resources I have been reading only consider a defined amount of queued tasks (when this may vary in my case).
What does that mean?
Its unclear what your diagram looks like, but I think Thread::Queue is workable like this
#!/usr/bin/perl --
use strict; use warnings;
use threads stack_size => 4096;
use Thread::Queue;
my %serverQ;
my $resultQ = Thread::Queue->new;
my @workers = map {
my $workQ = Thread::Queue->new;
threads->create( \&Worker, $workQ, $resultQ );
} 1..10;
...
while( @targets ){
...
if( my $q = $serverQ{ $host } ){
$q->enqueue( [
## 'Foo::bar::deployRoutine', $onearg, $twoarg, $threearg ,
'deployRoutine' =>
$targetServer, $deploySource, $deployDest, "true",
] );
...
FreeFreeWorkers( \%serverQ ); ## check empty Qs, unassociate from
+a host
...
$_->join for threads->list;
exit( 0 );
sub Worker {
my( $workQ, $resultQ ) = @_;
while( defined( my $jobDesc = $workQ->dequeue ) ) {
my( $package, $function, @args ) = @$jobDesc;
require Module::Load;
Module::Load::load( $package );
$resultQ->enqueue( [ $function->( @args ) ] );
}
return;
}

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).
