Using spawn in module constructor causes very strange behavior.
import std.concurrency;
import std.stdio;
void main() {
}
void worker() {
receiveOnly!OwnerTerminated;
}
static this() {
writeln("module constructor");
spawn(&worker);
}
static ~this() {
writeln("module destructor");
}
prints in console:
module constructor
module destructor
module constructor
module destructor
module constructor
module constructor
module constructor
module constructor
module constructor
...
Indeed it does. spawn creates a new thread, which has to construct its own
modules (things are thread-local in D, after all). Doing so calls spawn
again,
which creates a new thread...
