in thread Can I/O operations on the same IO::Socket be executed in different threads?

I can't speak for the AM, but several years ago I wrote some C code on Linux that shared a socket between 2 threads, one reading, one writing (like what the OP wants to do). It worked for me. I don't know if this would work on MS Windows.

    I wrote some C code

    I once wrote a program that allowed the computer to play solitaire, but there is a difference between what is feasible, and what is logical and sensible.

    There is simply no logical reason to split the reading from and writing to, one end of a single socket, between threads.
