You might want to try this script, which was worked out by andThenThereWasPERL in forking with Storable and IPC::ShareLite. It may give you a way to get it working with Parallel::ForkManager, or at least clue you in as to why your code is failing.
#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use Parallel::ForkManager; use IPC::Shareable; my $glue = $$; my %options = ( create => 1, exclusive => 0, mode => 0644, destroy => 1, ); my %final_parent_hash; my $parent_share = tie %final_parent_hash, 'IPC::Shareable', $glue, { +%options } or die "parent : tie failed\n"; my $fork_manager = new Parallel::ForkManager(5); foreach my $child ( 1 .. 10 ) { my $pid = $fork_manager->start($child) and next; my %options = ( create => 0, exclusive => 0, mode => 0644, destroy => 0, ); my %child_hash; my $child_share = tie %child_hash, 'IPC::Shareable', $glue, { %opt +ions } or die "client: tie failed\n"; for my $id (1 .. 20) { my $key = $child . '-' . $id; $child_share->shlock; $final_parent_hash{$key} = qq{|Kid $child pushed $id}; $child_share->shunlock; } $fork_manager->finish($child); } print "Waiting for Children...\n"; $fork_manager->wait_all_children; my $sleep_ctr = 10; while ($sleep_ctr) { if ((keys %final_parent_hash) == 200) { last; } sleep 1; $sleep_ctr--; } foreach my $child ( 1 .. 10 ) { for my $id (1 .. 20) { my $key = $child . '-' . $id; if (! exists $final_parent_hash{$key} ) { print "Missing data for Kid $child , data $id\n"; } else { print "$key = $final_parent_hash{$key}\n"; } } } IPC::Shareable->clean_up_all;
