Dear Greg! The reason I did the test, and why I detailed the result is that I could not reproduce any of the nasty things which can happen without locking. I know that everyone suggests to use the lock, but following your argument the test should have had a different outcome.
Any idea how to improve the test to realise potential data loss? It would convince me beyond "to be on the safe side". Kanya -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
