Where Wizards Fear To Tread (Perl.com)
Artur Bergman
examines
thread programming under Perl 5.8 on O'Reilly's perl.com site.
"One of the big new features in perl 5.8 is that we now have real working threads available to us through the threads pragma.
However, for us module authors who already have to support our modules on
different versions of perl and different platforms, we now have to deal
with another case: threads! This article will show you how threads relate
to modules, how we can take old modules and make them thread-safe, and
round off with a new module that alters perl's behavior of the 'current
working directory'."
