PDL-Parallel-threads

Sharing PDL data between Perl threads

See the documentation for PDL::Parallel::threads for more about the module. This readme covers installation.

REQUIREMENTS

Before we go any further, be aware that this will not install unless your perl was built with thread support. To check if your perl was compiled with thread support, type the following at your command prompt:

 perl -V:useithreads

If the output is define, you have thread support. If it is undef, you do not have thread support. If it is UNKNOWN, you mis-typed useithreads. Check your spelling. :-)

INSTALLATION

You can install the currently available version of this distribution using your favorite CPAN client. For example:

 cpan PDL::Parallel::threads
 cpanm PDL::Parallel::threads

The easiest way to install the development version is to use cpanm to install the tarball:

 cpanm https://github.com/PDLPorters/PDL-Parallel-threads/tarball/master

You'll need to have App::cpanminus in order to use cpanm. If you don't have that, or if you want to compile the code by hand, you can download the distribution using git or by directly downloading the zip archive at

  https://github.com/PDLPorters/PDL-Parallel-threads/zipball/master

or the tar.gz tarball at

  https://github.com/PDLPorters/PDL-Parallel-threads/tarball/master

Unpack and navigate a command-line shell to the root directory. Then issue the following commands:

  perl Makefile.PL
  make
  make test
  make install # or sudo make install
