This message is two-part. The first is
I am in need of a something like:
$worker_thread->stop();
I thought I would take a look at Thread::Suspend. I'm not sure that
suspend is really what I need. Is there a simple way to stop a thread?
part-two:
When I run the tests on Thread::Suspend, the tests don't pass. In fact, the
test t/Signal02 hangs. See below:
# make test
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e"
"test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t
t/Signal01....
=========================================================================
Please note that some warnings are displayed during testing. This should
not happen, but unfortunately does. This seems to be caused by a weird
interaction between threads, Thread::Signal and Test::More. Should you
use Thread::Signal in a "normal" situation with warnings enabled, and you
are getting warnings, please report these. Thank you for your attention.
=========================================================================
t/Signal01....dubious
