Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi, I've a doubt on accesssing one perl subroutine by multiple threads. Let us say two threads (using perlcall APIs) access a perl sub named X. First thread invoked X. while processing, First thread is preempted and the Second thread starts executing and accessing the same sub X. My question is, if the First thread continue execution from where it was preempted by the Second thread?. Is perl subroutine thread safe. We are getting some strange results. If you have answers for the same please let us know. Please contact me at poorna@india.hp.com Thanks, Poornachandran SM.
