Hi, unless the threads::shared model has improved a bit lately, you can only pass scalars as shared variables, and when you share a hash, only the top level hash keys can be accessed. So if you try to descend into a shared hashref, you may get bad results on a deep hash. See threads::shared and if you can show a running code example of what you are doing, that would help everyone out.

    Hello, I'm posting here what I did at that time, maybe it becomes handy to someone..: 
        share $shash{$dthread}{'go'};
    $shash{$dthread}{'go'} = 0;

    share $shash{$dthread}{'data'}->{'first_key'};
    $shash{$dthread}{'data'}->{'first_key'} = '';
  
    share $shash{$dthread}{'data'}->{'second_key'};
    $shash{$dthread}{'data'}->{'second_key'} = '';
  
    share $shash{$dthread}{'data'}->{'third_key'};
    $shash{$dthread}{'data'}->{'third_key'} = '';
  
    share $shash{$dthread}{'pid'};
    $shash{$dthread}{'pid'} = -1;
  
    share $shash{$dthread}{'die'};
    $shash{$dthread}{'die'} = 0;

    In such case $shash{$dthread}{'data'} becomes a key-value hash. Thank you!
