Hi all

I am using threads. Where for each targets I am doing telnet and returning telnet handle and storing it in the global array.

While storing it in the Array I am getting error as: Invalid value for shared scalar. code is as below. 

our @TelnetHandler  = ();
share(@TelnetHandler);
print "\n";
foreach my $TempUENum (@UEListAll)
{

    my $telhost = "ue$TempUENum-rig619";
    print "HOST: $telhost \n";
    my $t = threads->new(\&ConnectToTelnet,$TempUENum,"$telhost",5,'#'
+,1,"return");
    push(@threads,$t);
}


foreach (@threads) {
    my $num = $_->join;
    print "done with $num\n";
}

print "\n****** THREAD ******** \n";
foreach my $tmp (@TelnetHandler)
{
   print "Main TelNet Handle: $tmp \n";
}
print "End of main program\n";

sub ConnectToTelnet {

   my ($ue, $host, $timeout, $prompt, $telnetmode, $errmode)= @_;
   print "Connecting to UE$ue: $host \n";
    my $tid = threads->tid();
   print "\nStarting Thread: $tid \n";
   my $t_send = new Net::Telnet (
        Host            =>      $host,
        Timeout         =>      $timeout,
        Prompt          =>      '/'.$prompt.'$/',
        Errmode         =>      $errmode,
        Telnetmode      =>      $telnetmode
   );
   if(!defined(t_send))
   {
      print "Can't Telnet to UE \n";
   }
   else
   {
      print "TELNET HANDLE UE$ue: $t_send \n";
      #$TelnetHandler[$ue] = "UE$ue";
      $TelnetHandler[$ue] = $t_send; # GETTING ERROR HERE
   }

   return $ue;

}

Anyone could you please tell me what do I have to do store t_send value in the @TelnetHandler array?

Thanks --girija
