This is what I meant: `# some code here.... for (0 ..3)) { my $thr = threads->create ( sub { worker(); } )->detach(); } # Master Thread while (1) { master(); } sub master { while (1) { #check if workers are alive #enqueue work # .... } } sub worker { while (1) { #dequeue work # .... } }` [download] How can master() function monitor the threads that were created?

# some code here....

for (0 ..3))
{
    my $thr = threads->create (
                sub {
                   worker();
                    }
                 )->detach();
}

# Master Thread
while (1)
{
    master();
}

sub master
{
    while (1)
    {
      #check if workers are alive
      #enqueue work
      # ....
    }
}

sub worker
{
    while (1)
    {
      #dequeue work
      # ....
    }
