in thread Global objects?

Well, to be honest; The reading of the sensors happens in an uncached way. The reading takes about 1-2 seconds to complete, therefore i thoughd i'd fire a thread for each sensor. This way even though i have multiple sensors; it won't delay the script noticably.

I've read your article today (briefly) i'll look into it more in depth right away! Thanx!

p.s. i am using 5.8.8

    You might want to check out POE. This is the sort of task it is really great at.

    Of course POE isn't usually the first thing one throws at a Perl newbie. But you seem to be handling threads OK...
