It's compiled to support "ithreads" (interperator threads), which are currently under development. The "Thread" module is for 5.005-style threads, which are not ithreads. 5.005-style threads are being abondoned, apparently because they create race conditions that cannot be resolved efficiently. I would advise against their use. If you are interested, there is an experimental "threads" module for ithreads access from perl code.

The primary reason that it has threading support is to support forking emulation, because Windows does not have a OS-level fork call. (See perlfork.) You should be able to access threads this way, but beware that Win32::GUI might have some problems if you spawn threads while it's objects are in scope because it's (XS-based) destructors could be called prematurely, or twice. update: (These problems may occur if you merely have such objects in exsitence at time of forking, even.)

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
