Hello Perl monks

I am using forks module from CPAN, I get error when i write 

 $queue[0] = [1,2,3,4];

[download]

where, i delared $queue as shared variable, actually i wanted to store 1,2,3,4 in second dimension of array. It gives me arror as.. 

 Invalid value for shared scalar at ./emsNBIAlarmListener.pl line 107
 at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/sun4-solaris/forks/shared.pm 
+line 563
        threads::shared::STORE('threads::shared=HASH(0x872e10)', 0, 'A
+RRAY(0x435190)') called at ./emsNBIAlarmListener.pl line 107

[download]

But,When i write... 

 $queue[0] = \[1,2,3,4];

[download]

I get no error, but i dont know how to access the values now in first or second dimension....

Please Help me ...

Thank You Monks..
