( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Let's assume first that the {use threadsafe; ...} means that the contents of this block may be parallelized.

This is what I intended.

The programmer would have to be very very carefull then and it would take him ages to validate each and every subroutine that might get called. And the bigger the task (and thus the better candidate for parallel execution) the harder would it be to validate it. So I doubt people would use this often, if at all.

If you want any concurrency without this, then you need to use fork() or threads. In that case, you still need to verify that your code doesn't have concurrency issues. A use threadsafe around important portions would take no more work than existing solutions, and is likely to take less since only code explicitly inside a threadsafe block would need to be checked.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>

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.
