Hi,

This works for me. I moved the "test" routine to the top level and receives $self and $x1. Likewise, create provides $self and $x1 for the arguments.

sub test {
  my ($self, $x1) = @_;
  ...
};

sub startThread {
  my $self = shift;
  my $thr;

  share ($self->{x2});

  print "threads->create \$self{x1}=$self->{x1}\n";
  $thr = threads->create('test', $self, $self->{x1});
  $thr->detach();
}

Output

...
A: closing thread $self{x2}=558
    A=558 B=766 C=970
B: closing thread $self{x2}=766
    A=558 B=766 C=970
C: closing thread $self{x2}=970
    A=558 B=766 C=970
    A=558 B=766 C=970
    A=558 B=766 C=970
