Yup. Basically that's it. :)
But don't get too ambitious on Perl's ithreads. They are fun, but not as
rich as threads from other languages.

Is this really as easy as it seems or am I over looking something?
I have an array with references to tests. I want to loop through each
element in the array, call a subroutine passing in the test reference
using a thread. When all tests (threads) have been started I want to
loop through all threads and join so I can retrieve relevant data.
# Start threads.
my @threads = ();
foreach my $ref (@individual_tests) {
$thr = threads->new(\&run_test, $ref);
push(@threads, $thr);
}
# Retrieve data
foreach my $thr (@threads) {
my $results = $thr->join();
}
# run_test sub
sub run_test {
my $ref = shift;
# do stuff in here.
}
Thanks for looking this over.
Carter.
