The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List: modid: Thread::RWLock DSLIP: RdpOp description: rwlock implementation for perl threads userid: AFERBER (Andreas Ferber) chapterid: 20 (Control_Flow_Utilities) communities: similar: Thread::Semaphore rationale: Thread::RWLock is similar to a semaphore but distinguishes between readers and writers. One writer xor many readers may held the lock simultaneously. RWLock is a common name for this kind of lock, and it applies to multithreaded (perl-5.005-threads) programs, so I think it should be named just the way it is. enteredby: AFERBER (Andreas Ferber) enteredon: Fri Jun 29 02:28:33 2001 GMT The resulting entry would be: Thread:: ::RWLock RdpOp rwlock implementation for perl threads AFERBER Thanks for registering, The Pause Team PS: The following links are only valid for module list maintainers: Registration form with editing capabilities: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=b0100000_8fb06a0d5e00ea1f&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_preview=1 Immediate (one click) registration: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=b0100000_8fb06a0d5e00ea1f&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_insertit=1
