forks-0.22 - drop-in replacement for Perl threads using fork() - metacpan.org

Eric Rybski /

forks-0.22

Changes for version 0.22

Internal behavior changes *****
Thread manager process now forcefully kills any still active threads when it exits. This is intended to best simulate standard thread.pm thread cleanup during process exit.
Bug fixes *****
Corrected bug in shared server shutdown preventing complete cleanup.
Corrected some platform and perl build sensitivities in the test suite.
Miscellaneous changes *****
Added additional stability against fork() outside of forks.pm.
Tweaked some warnings and disabled some debug logging.
