The first question you have to ask is "Why do you need threads". What are you doing? Many people go "I need some sort of parallel process" and go "that needs threads!". But that is not so frequently true. If you just need two independent processes starting from one, then forks is all you need. If you're fine with having an IPC channel between processes, then forks might do the trick. If you just need to have some sort of IO operation system where interacting with external services doesn't "block" the execution of the perl program, then you don't need threads for that either, you need Async IO. using literal interpreter threads themselves is officially discouraged. ( See perldoc threads ) But knowing exactly which solution you need and what tools you will need to do it depends entirely on what exactly you wish to do. So a lot more detail is required here to give a definitive answer. -- Kent KENTNL - https://metacpan.org/author/KENTNL -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
