Re: Re: Global variables over many children

Oh dear, It seems a bit OTT as im only trying to share a pid of a deeper forked child in a daemon.
Anyway, I tried IPC::Sharable and got:

IPC::Shareable::SharedMem: shmget: No such file or directory
 at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/IPC/Shareable.pm line 566
Could not create shared memory segment:
 at ./duke.pl line 8

(Linux RH 7.2)
Thanks for your help

Don't use that. Use MLDBM::Sync, or just use a file if that seems like overkill.	[reply]

Using MLDBM::Sync worked perfectly, thanks. Up until the point I realised im gonna have to share an array :) So back to the shared memory question, whats going wrong there?	[reply]

MLDBM::Sync can share arrays. What's the problem?	[reply]
