Hello guys I'm using sig int to communicate between my class and the script who use it. In detail i'm using signals to change the flow of the script in certain situation. This works okay but the problem is that my sig int handler looks something like: 
sub handler {
   # call some log stuff here
   a_function() if($myobject->{something} eq 'lorem');
   b_function() if($myobject->{something} eq 'ipsum);
  #etc
}

my class send a signal to change the flow of the script in some scenarios, so its just a: kill 'INT', $$; Thing is that after the first okay the handler runs a_function() ( which is a long running function who dont return) if something happens and the class sends another kill, handler() will not be called because, I guess, for the OS or Perl we are still handling the first signal. So my question is there's a solution?
