Quoting Gerald Richter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Do you have any chance to test the same scripts with Perl 5.8.0 ?
I have now built and installed Perl 5.8.0 using GCC 2.95.3 on my Solaris 8 for sparc box. I then installed DBI 1.39 and DBD::Oracle 1.14. Oracle 9i was already installed. Code snippet 1 (http://shortestpath.org/threads1.html) now works fine - there is no longer a core dump when joining the threads. Code snippet 2 (http://shortestpath.org/threads2.html) now starts all 50 threads but dumps core (and it's a nice big 40Mb core :) when trying to join the first one. So, it looks like things have gotten a little further but sadly (for me, anyway) it's code snippet 2 that I'm really interested in getting going. I suppose this also highlights the fact that threading *has* changed in some way between 5.8.0 and 5.8.2. Kind regards, -- Sean Kelly <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
